"At The Academic Conference" lyrics

There was something in the air
Yes, I could smell it
Smart people everywhere
But do they know what love is?

Out of the corner of my eye
I saw an ordinary powerpoint slide
And I saw her standing there, and I

Fell in love
At the academic conference
Though I couldn't find the confidence
To tell her that I love her (and I do, you know that I do)

Enjoys whitman and camus
Well, no, I've never read them
I'm here just for the booze
Although, I'm not that dim...

So you've got your nice degree
But could you ever love somebody like me?
I guess I'll wonder for a while
'Cause I

Fell in love
At the academic conference
Though I couldn't find the confidence
To tell her that I love her (and I do, you know that I do)

Well my dear I must confess
I found your email address
While searching on the internet
And I'm writing to ask, did you forget me?
(Please don't forget me) 'cause I

Fell in love
At the academic conference
Though I couldn't find the confidence
To tell her that I love her (and I do, you know that I do)
