Leah Dowdy - Bonnie & Clyde Lyrics

When he doesn't say it back, but you still meant it
When he's careless with your heart, but you still send it
A one sided ballroom dance, a classic doomed romance
The kind that makes your feet hurt
Now you're left here defending his intentions
Filling in the blanks with the words he forgot to mention
Leave space for me he says
You stand and hold your breath
But he's still gone and you haven't moved yet

The truth is I wanted to grow old with you
And I'd be your last love if you asked me to

So I'll drink your poison, I don't no need no chaser
Yeah, I'll breath in all your lies until my lungs hurt
Hold steady and aim true, I'd a Juliet for you
And say at least I touched the sky
Cause if you break me now at least I'll know you meant it
A step outside the lonely I've been wrapped in
I gave it all to you
Some things you can't undo
One year gone and I'm still seeing blue

The truth is I wanted to grow old with you
And I'd be your last love if you asked me to

Mistook your honesty for novelty, it was cruelty
Turns out real life ain't nothing like the movies
Full speed and off the drive
A cinematic Bonnie & Clyde
Credits roll and I'm still alive

The truth is I wanted to grow old with you
Could have been your last love if you'd asked me
If you'd asked me to

I'll be your last love
Yes, I'll be your last love
I'll be your last love

I'll be your last love
Yes, I'll be your last love
I'll be your last love
