Conventioneers

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
