Beneath The Pale

I play games with eyes
I can’t apologize or say why
In Peek-A-Boo, I play into
Your green or blue or grey eyes
I challenge you to I Spy
Defiant, Captain, May I?

On cue, out come your Hi games
Your Sideways Hello-Bye games
The send-the-soul-mile-high games
The make them laugh, then cry games
I play, no matter -You’re a star
I’m a lover of all you are 

And all these games aren’t really games
They’re ways to keep the time
‘Til you and I look eye to eye
Beneath the pale 
And from on high
Promise hello
