The Life of Us

I can't for the life of me

Know why for the life of you

We came to be the life of us

In this life we knew

***

I don't much know

For the life of me

How I live with you

In the life we see

***

It's our life to live

Come what may

In the life of you

When we live this way

***

Don't take me as I am

But don't pass me by

I may cost you a lot

But gain your soul when I try

***

We're all cat's eyes

In a toy ball bag

But our lust asks us

To zig when we zag

***

Real as I am

But, does not real fly?

The game is at hand

Both our ways when you try
