[English]
Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry
for everything that I've done
But when I call you never
seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry
for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly
doesn't tear you apart anymore
Hello
How are you?
It's so typical of me to talk about myself
I'm sorry
I hope that you're well
Did you ever make it out of that town
where nothing ever happened?
It's no secret
that the both of us
are running out of time
So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry
for everything that I've done
But when I call you never
seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry
for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly
doesn't tear you apart anymore
Ooh
anymore
Ooh
anymore
Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry
for everything that I've done
But when I call you never
seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry
for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly
doesn't tear you apart anymore
