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
或许,生活就是这样
Let me know if you’re still alive

Let me know if you ever used that knife or not

Hello
Yes, I remember you
你好,我还记得你
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

I’m really a 46 years old man named Luke

And a wife, she doesn’t care

For trying to find my way back to what it’s like to be young
