Once Like You Video (MV)

As a child, I used to dream of living out at sea
And watching all the waves as they grew distant on the beach
But now I have a family of my own
A lovin' child to take my house and turn it to a home
I struggle and I strain just to get right through the day
Till I'm free to make my way back home to you
When I see you son, it fills my heart
But it breaks me down to tears
Cause when I look into your eyes
I can see myself in them
So son, you listen up and you listen good
Cause I was young once, too
And I guess we all had something to prove
But I said it once, I'll say it twice
It don't take much to recognize
I know it don't sound nice, but it's the truth
That I was once like you
Starry eyed and bullet-proof
Like walking on the moon
But every dog has its day
Well I was strong once, too
And I guess back then the world was ours
And our lives were still in bloom
Cause we were driving late down country roads
Or watching storms light up the coast
And laughing hard at every single joke
Well I was once the fool
Teary eyed and terrified
Like a thunderstorm in June
I struggled just to stand
But I did the best I can
To try and build a better home for you
You've got to find that Silver Star
And win or lose I'll stick with you
No matter where you are
Cause you might not make it there
Just be careful where you land
I swear to god I know you'll make it far
I swear to God I know you'll make it far...
