[한국어]
일곱 살이었을 때, 엄마가 내게 말씀하셨지
"친구들을 사귀렴, 안 그러면 외로워질 거야"
일곱 살이었을 때
세상은 정말 컸지만, 우린 우리가 더 크다고 생각했어
서로를 한계까지 밀어붙이며 더 빨리 배우려 했지
열한 살엔 풀을 피우고 독한 술을 마시기도 했어
부유하진 않았기에 안정적인 수입을 얻으려 애썼지
열한 살이었을 때, 아빠가 내게 말씀하셨지
"아내를 얻으렴, 안 그러면 외로워질 거야"
열한 살이었을 때
난 항상 아빠처럼 꿈을 꾸곤 했어
그래서 노래를 쓰고 이야기를 쓰기 시작했지
이런 명성이라는 건 왠지 모르게 항상 지루하게 느껴졌어
진정으로 사랑하는 사람들만이 나를 온전히 알 테니까
스무 살이 되었을 때, 내 이야기가 세상에 알려졌지
아침 해가 뜨기 전, 인생이 외롭게 느껴질 때
스무 살이었을 때
난 오직 목표만 바라봐, 실패는 믿지 않아
작은 목소리라도 크게 성공할 수 있다는 걸 아니까
내 친구들은 곁에 있어, 적어도 날 지지해 주는 이들은
내가 떠나기 전에 못 보더라도, 나중에 다시 보길 바라
스무 살이었을 때, 내 이야기가 세상에 알려졌지
내 앞에 보이는 모든 것에 대해 글을 썼어
스무 살이었을 때
곧 서른 살이 되겠지, 우리의 노래는 세상에 퍼졌고
우린 세계를 여행하며 여전히 떠돌고 있어
곧 서른 살이 되겠지
난 여전히 인생을 배워가는 중이야
내 아내는 아이들을 낳아주었고
난 그 아이들에게 내 모든 노래를 불러줄 수 있어
그리고 아이들에게 이야기를 들려줄 수 있지
친구들 대부분은 여전히 곁에 있고
몇몇은 아직 성공을 좇아 밖을 헤매지만
어쩔 수 없이 뒤에 남겨둬야 했던 친구들도 있어
내 친구여, 정말 미안해
곧 예순 살이 되겠지, 아빠는 예순한 살에 돌아가셨어
삶을 기억해, 그럼 네 삶은 더 나아질 거야
한 번은 편지를 써서 한 사람을 정말 행복하게 했었지
우리 아이들이 한 달에 한두 번쯤 찾아와 주길 바라
곧 예순 살이 될 텐데, 세상이 차갑게 느껴질까?
아니면 나를 따뜻하게 해줄 많은 아이들이 곁에 있을까?
곧 예순 살이 되겠지
곧 예순 살이 될 텐데, 세상이 차갑게 느껴질까?
아니면 나를 안아줄 많은 아이들이 곁에 있을까?
곧 예순 살이 되겠지
Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old
It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was eleven years old
I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about this glory just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old (Lukas Graham!)
I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm still sorry
Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can hold me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
