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)
