You walked into the room

And the whole place stopped to notice

Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this

I've 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.





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 down 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...

Won't you say?

It 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 wait, come in late. It'd be great

If you transferred out of state
