Oil On Water
Bastille Song Lyrics

Artist: Bastille
Album: Wild World (2016)

So her fingers ran away with themselves
'till everything was documented
Our mind it was reaching out
To put into words what their bodies had done.

They lie together, oh...
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh...
Someone's daughter.

It's a catalogue of modern mistakes
Her words and legs wrapped around each man
Leaving stories like digital crumbs
As she turns these nights into literature.

They lie together, oh...
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh...
Someone's daughter.

When they leave she sets about writing down
Awkward body games all over town
Warm affection runs through every word
We're screens away but we're laughing with her.

They lie together, oh...
Oil on water
And they lie upon her, oh...
Someone's daughter.

They lie upon her, oh...
Oil on water.
