The Letter Home - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)/Brodsky Quartet
Written by：Mac Manus/Paul Cassidy/Ian Belton
Care of St ignatus house willoughby drive

Parramatta new south wales
This fifth day of July

In the year of our Lord

Nineteen hundred and thirty five

Why must I always apologize

Every time that I sit down to write

Through my own fault I may find

You're no longer living at this address

Please excuse the lack of news
The feeling of strange privilege

For the hour of trial in these times of distress
Mean more than years imprisoned by etiquette

I can remember when we were children

Though I could never imagine this day

Your brother told me we'd live forever

I'll go one better I heard myself say
And it seems so strange now that he's gone

To recall all these games

Though the years have divided us
Friendships have strained and broken

Oh by the way how's that girl that you wed

I hated you then but I'm over the worst of it

I can't come home I might as well say

Life is short I shall not write again
