Seven Years | Lukas Graham | Cover by Sandupi | 5% For SL-Charity

After a long long long time, I was able to do a cover to my one of favorite song seven years by Lukas Graham. I had a big desire to make a cover song to this song but I couldn't do that. With the little vacation I had, I was able to fulfill my desire 😍.

Lyrics

^{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 11 smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was 11 years old, my daddy told me
Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
Once I was 11 years old
I always had that dream like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about the glory, just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once I was 20 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 atleast those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything, I saw before me
Once I was 20 years old}

So guys, first of all I wanna say, please forgive for my mistakes. I really enjoyed not only from making cover but also in editing process. Even though the song is sung by Lukas Graham, I first listened a cover song done by a girl. Anyway I'll mention both original and cover songs below.

Original Song
Cover Song

This song is really heart-touching song and song flows to 60 years but I stopped my cover from twenty years 🙊. Even though it's not the same as the song, we can say "once i was" what happened at each ages. This song is a good stimulus for that.

For an example, once I was seven years old, my mom didn't come to home for long time. Actually it was about two weeks but I felt it was a long time. She had admitted to hospital for a disease and had taken treatments but little me was not aware of that. So I was scared that I lost my mom.

That was a unbearable time in my life. I never listened what my family members said to me. I asked them to show me my mom. But my mom had taken Radiation therapy so others can't go and see her. But I couldn't understand that. I wanna say about my grade two class teacher Chandani Senevirathne teacher.

My loku amma had explained my situation to my class teacher and my class teacher made me very calm ❤️. She can't remember my name. But when I remind her about my mom's incident, she quickly recognize me.

Like that we all have a story to say in each age and this is Lukas Graham's one... I hope you will enjoy this song. Let's meet with another cover soon....
