Long Lost Penpal - Hello Saferide 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
