Long Lost Pen Pal -- 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 mixtapes 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 pen pal
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 that you don't hate me
For trying to find my way back to what it's like to be young

Repeat #

歌词大意：《失散已久的笔友》

你好
你还记得我吗？
我是你失散已久的笔友
上次通信已是十年前的事了
我不太清楚后来发生了什么
我想是繁忙的生活阻碍了我们的交往
告诉我，你是否还活着
告诉我，你是否用过那把刀

你好
是的，我记得你
我现在有了一个丈夫和两个孩子
我当上了会计，收入还算不错
我还留着你写来的信
你过去常用粉红墨水笔给我写信
你给我带来安慰
我的泪水会沾湿你的笔墨
我还会给你寄一些收录了凯特·布什音乐的歌曲合集

# 我得承认，我有时会在那些信里撒谎
试图把生活描绘得比现实中的要好
我直到十六岁还不曾有初吻
且我仍需要一个朋友 #

你曾写给我这封信
我那时从未告诉过你
但老实说，它救了我的命
我那时坐在窗边
是唯一一个再次没获邀参加派对的人
我很确定，我一个朋友都没有
于是，我打开邮箱

亲爱的失散已久的笔友
过去我一直都在对你撒谎
我其实是个名叫卢克，已46岁的男人
我有一个妻子和三个孩子
我妻子对我漠不关心
我希望你不会怨恨我
我希望你不会讨厌我
因为我只是想找回年轻的感觉

Hello Saferide是由创作人Annika Norlin组建的一支瑞典乐队。
乐队成员有：Annika Norlin, Fredrik Hultgren, Jens Lagergren, Andreas Mattsson, Andrea Kellerman, Tomas Hallonsten,  Magnus Eklund.
2007年。Annika Norlin以Säkert！乐队的名义发行了一张专辑"Yeah, right!"，这张专辑为她赢得了两个 2008年的格莱美奖项，最佳流行女歌手和最佳歌词。
素有邻家女孩形象，acoustic pop风味的恬淡民谣，Hello Saferide拾起一把空心吉他，以小女孩的自吟带来了委实动人的「Introducing...Hello Saferide」专辑。

关于这张专辑评价中有这么一句：“这是一张关于相思成灾，寂寞无眠和美好回忆的专辑，洋溢其中的淳淳爱意令人迷醉。”
一首《Long Lost Penpal》是讲述的是两个笔友之间的平凡动人的故事，这种不张不扬的曲风淡淡慵懒，淡淡从容，淡淡幽雅，淡淡忧伤，淡淡美丽，淡淡寂寞,似不经意地低吟浅唱，却吐气如兰．微笑并且流泪的花朵在青春的季节里永不会凋谢……

Hello Saferide are primarily Annika Norlin, a music journalist from Sweden who was surprised to find success as a singer/songwriter. While Norlin wrote songs in the past, she finally recorded a song for fun and put it online. She quickly received label interest, and in September 2005, Razzia Records released Introducing... Hello Saferide. A band was assembled and through 2006 Hello Saferide played over 100 shows around the world. In addition to a batch of EPs and singles, Norlin released a record under the name Säkert! in 2007.
