Gone when you get stuck
Sleepin' when you wake up
Lover on the other coastOff to the races
Headed other places
Chasing a familiar ghostNo one said it would be this hard
How could I know
Why do we always get so far
Before we let goAnd we separate
Nothing is the same forever
See you drive away
Wish I could make you stay
Oh, oil and water
Oh, oil and waterCycles, seasons, watching you leave and
Thinkin' I could change the rules
Rocks on the ocean, wheels in motion
Wishin' is a game of foolsNo one said it would be this hard
How could I know
Why do we always get so far
Before we let goAnd we separate
Nothing is the same forever
See you drive away
Wish I could make you stay
Oh, oil and water
Oh, oil and waterKickin', screamin'
Softly speaking
Near are parting ways
We'll go under
Oil and water
Always separateKickin', screamin'
Softly speaking
Near are parting ways
We'll go under
Oil and water
Always separateAnd we separate
Nothing is the same forever
See you drive away
Wish I could make you stay
Oh, oil and water
Oh, oil and water
Oh, oil and water
Oh, oil and water
