Strum
D-DU-UDU
 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?
What  you say doesn?t matter  anyway
 Now I?m in the 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  this conversation?
So  I wait, come  in late. It?d  be great
If  you transferred out of state
