 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.
