    Two less lonely people in the world

    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
