By : Steve Wynneverybody's talking about Jesse Jamesthe way he lived and the way he diedbut in love, even crime can draw a tighter bindthis is the story of Bonnie and Clydein his life, Clyde dreamed of the perfect loveruntil one day his prayers came truedrawn together like a bow and arrow,enter Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrowpassion levels all that it encounterslike a drug, it needs no rhyme or reasonblood was spilt and lives were torn asunder Clyde and Bonnie filled the land with wonderfantasies of years they'd spend together,shattered by a politician's pledgealways one step before the gallowsa lust for crime that wouldn't let them restheadlines scream POLICEMAN DEAD IN DALLA Sthe long arm of the law was not amusedbrighter shades of love were turning darkercurtains for Barrow and Bonnie Parkerthe thrill is gone and panic takes its placehope is growing dimmer by the hourflashes of light against the blackcarefully take aim and then attack-tack-tackthe final flickers of a dangerous life Clyde sees the blood run from his dying wife Bonnie breathes her last breath in despaira vision of the corpse of Clyde Barrowthey laid them in the ground before the morning cameto stay together till the end of timeno coffin, no headstone and no markerthe end for Barrow and Bonnie Parker Bonnie and Clyde, Bonnie and Clyde
