Brian Eno
Lukas
They call him Lukas
Climbing the stairs to talk to you
Coming to tell his story
Every single one of which is true

Hello Lukas
I'm pleased to meet you, now how you do?

So they go driving
Up to the river like lovers do
You smell like the summer
Maybe the summer just smells of you
One day I'm gonna be a famous writer
Some look like love in the afternoon
It was all Lukas could say
Maybe one day we could run away
Run away

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I thought you'd never ask
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I thought you'd never ask
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Now here comes Lukas
He'd done everything you wanted to
It's 20 years later
Come back to do what he promised to
He'd come back to make her happy
But these things don't always wait for you
And poor Lukas was late
Cuz when he got back she'd been married a day
Gone away
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I thought you'd never ask
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
I thought you'd never ask
Ooh ooh ooh 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 wake
High up in heaven you can hear them say
Looking for Lukas
But Lukas was always running away

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
