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
|
|
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(1)O(1)V(4)E(1)
|
|
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...
|
|
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
|
