British Sea Power It Ended On An Oily Stage Lyrics

It Ended On An Oily Stage Lyrics

Everything you said was true

Everything you did was you

Everything I started with her

Ended on an oily stage where

I wrote elegiac stanzas for you

I hope and pray that they come true



He found God in a parking lot

And you did not

I, I headed for the coastal re

Regions of mind, to see what I'd find



But I do understand

Why they're looking at you

As if you ever really cared



All across the eastern board

Languages were being lost

You look so elegantly bored now

Totally at ease with it all, yeah

Whilst you were drunk, oh, you let it all slip

I hope and pray, that it's okay



He found God in a Wiltshire field

Whilst you did not

I, I headed for the coastal re

Regions of mind to see what I'd find



But I do understand

Why they're looking at you

As if you ever really cared



He found God in a Wiltshire field

And you did not

I, I headed for the coastal re

Regions of mind to see what I'd find
