Once I was seven years old my momma told me
Go make yourself some friends
Or you'll be lonely
Once I was seven years old
The smile, the charm, the words, the spark
Everything, you had it
I guess I had a naive heart, cause boy
I let you have it
You said I was your only
I never thought you'd leave me lonely
You're just a lost boy, with your head up in the clouds
You're just a lost boy
Never keep your feet on the ground
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
But You'll never grow up
And You're never gonna be a man
Peter Pan
I always had that dream
Like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs
I started writing stories
Something about that glory
Just always seemed to bore me
Cause only those I really love
Will ever really know me
You're always gonna fly away
Once I was 20 years old
My story got told
Before the morning sun
When life was lonely
You're always gonna fly away
Once I was 20 years old
You're always gonna fly away
Just because you know you can
You're never gonna learn
There's no such place as neverland
You don't understand
You'll never grow up
You're never gonna be a man
Soon I'll be 60 years old
My daddy got 61
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
You're always gonna fly away
Soon I'll be 60 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 60 years old
You're always gonna fly away
Soon I'll be 60 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 60 years old
You're always gonna fly away
Once I was seven years old my momma told me
Go make yourself some friends
Or you'll be lonely
You're always gonna fly away
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
