What The Water Gave Me

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Time it took us

To where the water was

That's what the water gave me

And time goes quicker

Between the two of us

Oh, my love, don't forsake me

Take what the water gave me

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

And oh, poor Atlas

The world's a beast of a burden

You've been holding up a long time

And all this longing

And the ships are left to rust

That's what the water gave us

So lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

'Cause they took your loved ones

But returned them in exchange for you

But would you have it any other way?

Would you have it any other way?

You couldn't have it any other way

'Cause she's a cruel mistress

And a bargain must be made

But oh, my love, don't forget me

When I let the water take me

So lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the over flow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

So lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow

Pockets full of stones

Lay me down

Let the only sound

Be the overflow
