Luanne, Luanne,
why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne,
don’t keep your love inside.
Wait around for you after school.
You slip away and I don’t see you.
Don’t know ehat I’m gonna do
If you can’t see how much I love you.
We met one day and then you ran away.
I’ve searched the whole town looking for you,
I know you’re there somewhere.
Luanne, Luanne,
why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne,
don’t keep your love inside.
I write letters that I never send,
I keep the words to whisper you someday.
Don’t know where and don’t know when,
Luanne, I’m gonna get to you someway.
I want to feel your love so close to me.
Give me just half a chance
To prove myself, I need to.
Luanne, Luanne,
why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne,
don’t keep your love inside.
These days true love is so hard to find.
Someday, I know, you’re gonna be mine,
Luanne, Luanne, Luanne.
Oh, Luanne, Luanne,
why do you run and hide?
Luanne, Luanne,
don’t keep your love inside.
Luanne, Luanne,
no need to run and hide.
Luanne, Luanne,
don’t keep your love inside.
Luanne, Luanne,
wanna be beside you, can’t you understand?
Luanne, Luanne,
give mea a little love, I know you can.
Luanne, hye, Luanne,
can’t you hear me calling, Luanne?
