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
