Bonnie & Clyde
from The Longshot EP by Stevie Mac
lyrics
We're living east of Eden
Cut off all our ties
Got pushed by friends down these dead ends
So we found a compromise
We're getting back to nature
Reaching for the sky
And your desires are the copper wires
That set me alight
Our conversations are running dry
You don't need a reason to throw me a line
They frown & say we act like Bonnie & Clyde
Well they can eat their words & shut their eyes
'Cause I would never let you down
Even when we're in the wrong
We made our choice & took a stand
For worse or better
We'll pick a destination
Somewhere they'll never find
And that aside I have to say
I don't have much in mind
We'll blaze a constellation
A trail across the sky
We'll shine until we burn away
It's you & me for life
Our conversations are running dry
You don't need a reason to drop me a line
They laugh & say we act like Bonnie & Clyde
Well they can eat their words & shut their eyes
'Cause I would never let you down
Even when we're in the wrong
We made our choice & took a stand
For worse or better
Cut off all our ties
Got pushed by friends down these dead ends
So we found a compromise
We're getting back to nature
Reaching for the sky
And your desires are the copper wires
That set me alight
Our conversations are running dry
You don't need a reason to throw me a line
They frown & say we act like Bonnie & Clyde
Well they can eat their words & shut their eyes
'Cause I would never let you down
Even when we're in the wrong
We made our choice & took a stand
For worse or better
We'll pick a destination
Somewhere they'll never find
And that aside I have to say
I don't have much in mind
We'll blaze a constellation
A trail across the sky
We'll shine until we burn away
It's you & me for life
Our conversations are running dry
You don't need a reason to drop me a line
They laugh & say we act like Bonnie & Clyde
Well they can eat their words & shut their eyes
'Cause I would never let you down
Even when we're in the wrong
We made our choice & took a stand
For worse or better
