Robbing Banks

[iblieve]

She dreamed of robbing banks
thought that would be the perfect prank.
A modern day hero like Jesse James
in search of fortune and fame.
She was a clown without a stage
caught in the spotlight beginning to fade.

I was an outlaw but wouldn’t rob her banks
smart enough to say ,“no thanks,”
even though she was the point of my desire
stole my heart, set my soul on fire.
I was just a clown without a stage
caught in her spotlight beginning to fade.

I often wonder did she find her Jesse James
willing to play her deadly games
I can see them robbing banks
pulling those silly pranks.
Riding off into the sunset
horses running hot and wet.
Just clowns searching for a stage,
and a spotlight that never fades.

She dreamed of robbing banks,
thought that would be the perfect prank.
I left to find my own destiny
robbing banks wasn’t for me.
I’m still here, a clown without a stage
searching for a spotlight that never fades
and a girl that doesn’t dream of robbing banks.

No she never looked back or regretted one damn thing, and yes I would call her an artist too. Did you know her too? Thank you for the comment my friend.
