Lyrics

You walked into the room and the whole place stopped to notice
 Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this
 I have never been ashamed of my attraction
 I'd be happy if you gave me just a fraction
 As we danced, I could see in your eyes
 You and me as senior citizens in love
 ♪
 I followed your perfume out, away from all the rabble
 Right up to your room for a drink and Travel Scrabble
 You, stationed in the warm glow of the T.V
 Too patient as I'm playing L O V E
 And we laugh and we laugh and we laugh
 And we have to or we'll end up in the bath
 Now we're in the bath, I'm already thinking marriage
 I know that, in the past, it was something I'd disparage
 You turned out all the lights, I lit the candles
 We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals
 Then you slept and I dressed and I left
 And I guess I'll see you Monday like before?
 Before all the fireworks exploded
 Our conversations were so loaded, innuendo flying
 Now what can we say?
 "Have a nice day"?
 "Looks like rain today"?
 ♪
 What'd you say? Doesn't matter anyway
 ♪
 Now I'm in a cab heading back to my apartment
 Everything is drab and I wish it never started
 Now I've landed in this awkward situation
 How can I just avoid a conversation?
 So I'll wait, come in late
 It'd be great if you transferred out-of-state
