Oil On Water

[Verse 1:]
So her fingers ran away with themselves
'Till everything was documented
Her mind it was reaching out
To put into words what their bodies had done.

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

[Verse 2:]
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.

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

[Verse 3:]
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.

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

They lie upon her, oh
Oil on water.;
