Bonnie & Clyde Lyrics


Bastille Bonnie & Clyde

[Intro]
Ooh, criminal mind
Ooh, criminal mind

[Verse 1]
Shot down in Louisiana
We locked eyes in house of friends
I said, "Hey, Bonnie, my name's Clyde"
And felt a violent sudden change of tide

[Pre-Chorus]
Love was bold, love was new, from the dust, me and you
Who'd have known that we'd echo through time?
[Chorus]
I bear witness (I bear witness) to a criminal mind
Who loves me one day easily and then I'm left behind
Am I victim (Am I victim) to cynical mind
That twists the words you say to me and then I'm left behind?

[Post-Chorus]
With time will have its way with you, will havе its way with you
There's not much we can do, thеre's not much we can do
Mh, hm-hm

[Verse 2]
You wrote beautiful poems, predictin' a doomed love story
Took joke photographs, dressed up living gangster lives
The headlines wrote a version of us, suddenly we're famous
Got blown up, then blown away and mythologised

[Pre-Chorus]
They got us right, got us wrong, life of crime, dying young
But by your side's how it feels to belong

[Chorus]
I bear witness (I bear witness) to a criminal mind (Ooh, criminal mind)
Who loves me one day easily and then I'm left behind (Ooh)
Am I victim (Am I victim) to cynical mind (Ooh, criminal mind)
That twists the words you say to me and then I'm left behind? (Ooh)
[Post-Chorus]
With time will have its way with you, will have its way with you
There's not much we can do, there's not much we can do
Mh, hm-hm, baby, we were doomed

[Bridge]
Hey
(Ooh, criminal mind) Not much we can do
(Ooh, criminal mind) Not much we can do
(Ooh, criminal mind) Oh, baby, we were doomed
(Ooh, criminal mind)

[Chorus]
I bear witness to a criminal mind
Who loves me one day easily and then I'm left behind (Ooh)
Or am I victim (Am I victim) to cynical mind (Ooh, criminal mind)
That twists the words you say to me and then I'm left behind? (Ooh)

[Post-Chorus]
With time will have its way with you, will have its way with you
There's not much we can do, there's not much we can do

[Outro]
(Ooh, criminal mind) Not much we can do, mh-hm
(Ooh, criminal mind)
