Hello Saferide - Long Lost Penpal (feat. Firefox AK) Lyrics

Complimentary "Long Lost Penpal" Ringtone

Hello,
Do you remember me?
I am your long lost pen pal.
It must have been ten years ago we last wrote.
I don’t really know what happened,
I guess life came in the way.
Let me know if you’re still alive.
Let me know if you ever used that knife or not.

Hello,
Yes I remember you!
I’ve got a husband and two children now.
I work as an accountant and make fairly good money.
I still have your letters, you used a pink pen to write them.
And you would comfort me,
when my tears would stain the ink,
and I would send you mix tapes with Kate Bush on.

I have to admit I sometimes lied in those letters
Tried to make life better than it was
I still wasn’t kissed at sixteen
And I still need a friend

There was this letter,
I never told you this back then.
But it would be fair to say it saved my life...
I sat in the window,
the only one left out from a party again.
Pretty sure I didn’t have a single friend,
then I checked the mailbox.

Dear long lost penpal,
I was lying the whole time.
I’m really a 46 years old man named Luke.
I have three children,
and a wife, she doesn’t care.
And I hope you don’t resent me,
and I hope you do not hate me
for trying to find my way back to what it’s like to be young...

I have to admit I sometimes lied in those letters
Tried to make life better than it was
I still wasn’t kissed at sixteen
And I still need a friend
