Those Things You Do
You have naughty ploys!
Yeah,
You do.
Stratagems placed,
To lay before...
An unsuspecting face.
And I wish I was not so jaded,
To expose my innocence and naïveté.
Whatever is left of it.
But the patience I once had,
Is even more limited.
So I too could enjoy,
Those things you do...
With a smoothness you exude.
But I've already been fooled and tricked.
However,
There is something done you do...
That provides an amusement with it!
'You light up my life,
With those eyes.
Are you from Cincinnati? '
Yes!
You too?
'Oh! Ooooh.
No.
I'm sorry.
I thought you were someone else.'
I'm sure you did.
