What The Water Gave Me

In the style of

Florence + the Machine

Lyrics

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 on
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

'cos 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

'cos she’s a cruel mistress
and a bargain must be made

but oh my love don’t forget me
but i let the water take me

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

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
