Lukas

They call him Lukas Climbing the stairs to talk to you Coming to tell his stories Every single one of which is true Hello Lukas I'm pleased to meet you, now how do you do? So they go driving Out to the river like lovers do You smell of the summer Maybe the summer just smells of you One day I'm gonna be a famous writer Some book like Love in the Afternoon It was all Lukas could say Maybe one day we could run away Run away Ooh, I thought you'd never ask Ooh Ooh, I thought we'd never last Ooh Now here comes Lukas He'd done everything he wanted to It was twenty years later Come back to do what he'd promised to He'd come back to make her happy But these things don't always wait for you And poor Lukas was late 'Cause when he got back she'd been married a day Gone away Ooh, I thought you'd never ask Ooh Ooh, I thought we'd never last Ooh And Lukas would say For a million lonely people, another lonely day For a million hearts that open, a million break And the world's just a fallen angel in my way High up in heaven you can hear them say Looking for Lukas, but Lukas was always running away
