Florence + The Machine - What The Water Gave Me (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
But 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
'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 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
If goddess Florence ask you tu jump, the least you can do is fly.
Lector Empedernido what if she ask for you to fly?
then you lightspeed space travel
@@TheLookmai Then you ascend to the higher grounds
haha great comment Pablo
I would go super nova 🌟 🤩
I've always adored this song.
Me too. It's my favorite from Cerimonials
Mine too!!! ❤️
The other singers' vocal overtones at the end make it so much better than the recorded version.
I don't why, but this song is my absolute favorite song from Florence. It just speaks to me on a whole different level. I was so bummed out that she didn't play it when I saw her live recently. She's amazing! Love her forever, that voice is beyond this world!
as a bass player I Love playing it on bass,it took some practice there bass player has a unique way of playing especially on this song haha.....my only problem is when it comes to the lyrics and meaning of the song I cant tell if the songs about suicide or homicide? I mean the lyrics are all laying where the ships are left to rust, lay them down let the only sound be the over flow pockets filled with stones lay them down, so someones been drowned to death lol.
This is my favourite song as well. It's a masterpiece. My favourite song of all time.
@@brandonh5201 i’m a year late. but the stones line i believe is in reference to Virginia Woolf. she put stones in the pockets and drowned herself.
It's January 2023, this woman's voice still makes the synapses in my brain do crazy things.
Audience was quiet because they were amazed watching and listening Florence. Then, when she started jumping and telling them to jump they reacted and they thought: OMG Queen Florence is telling us to jump! jajaja
Florence, if you're there, I just want to say that, with this song, I've become your soul-mate. Continued success.
I'm crying, everyone sounds so fucking good 😭
Hahaha why is this me every Florence and the Machine performance too
I swear I'll be a fan of the band for the rest of my life. I want to get a tattoo inspired by this song.
Like the painting that inspired the song?
Did you?
She's out of this world. Unreal.
I love how the kick drum has an alchemical symbol for water and air on it. Very fitting!
I hope one day I get to see her live!!
I'm sure you will! I saw them at the BTS Festival in London this July, and I will say this: flows who haven't seen F+TM live yet have not yet truly lived. Flo's presence on stage is honestly just so invigorating and, in addition to her angelic voice and the heavenly music of the band, is just beautiful.
birdcageflo Truest comment on the internet. I myself have been to two concerts of florence and the machine, best concerts in the history of life!!!! I am waiting for her to return to my country!
My favorite bands are Metallica, U2, Foo Fighters, RHCP, Sabbath, AC/DC, I enjoy mostly hard rock and metal and I've seen Metallica 3 times, U2, Foos, Offspring. But this year I saw Florence in Turin and it was the best concert I've ever been too. Queen Florence is just godlike

2020 and yet this is still a masterpiece for those with taste. I never really understood the lyrics the way I did now, 8 years later, and maybe that's due to all the growing I had undergone. Listening to this when you're 15 is not the same as listening to it when you're almost 24.
Florence, you've contributed to parts of that growing btw.
Hussein Berjaoui Completely agree!
I understand shit about the lyrics and it's a masterpiece.
her voice breaks time barriers
Isn’t this song inspired by the suicide of the poet Virginia Woolf?
I, too, love this song, and I love how she performs it here
Lol
Florence is not human. she's an angel sent from God to us to bless us with her beautiful music
That crowd is so bad. i would be dancing like crazy
Clayton Goldhawk my friend, watch the Argentina concert. THAT was a crowd.
Florence's voice is beautiful as always, but the venue is a little too cramped for her. She needs a giant stage to dance on and a big crowd so they can feed off each other's energy. This is a small stage with maybe 300 people packed in. I saw her this past June in Chicago with 20,000 other fans in an open air amphitheater, THAT was an experience.
Clayton Goldhawk omg right?
This is mainly for television. The sound is there and she and band sound great.
American people...
I hope that florence and the machine will have an Orchestra version of their new album live. 👌👍

She is the only artist, for except maybe only Bjork, that makes me feel from the music that there is something beyond perceived reality, a force of conciousness which permeates all things and lives on it's own.
im descovering Bjork now and that you said is so true
bjork, sade, florence
tool
If you like florence, check out Tori Amos😊✌
You like these 2 but not Kate Bush? Odd
Florence+harp= heaven
Just in america to have a crowd like that...I Brazil, Poland, Argentina, UK... actually any other place people would be dacing
Singing live or not.. she's so cool, beautiful and talented. Such a strong voice too. 😌💕
All her music has such a timeless feel
That is real youth
this one is my favorite song, it takes me to another atmosphere.
Florence is just amazing!
How Is this audience so calm. I would be jumping around like a mad bewitched woman but who am I, just a diehard fan!
Saw her live in Chicago 2016, this song was killer, she has a special energy unlike any other performer, truly magical and powerful, highly recommended, Florence is the fuckin bomb!
I love her so much!
Yesss me too 💕💜💕💜💕💜
Goddess of the Ocean. FATM gives me reason to live. Forever indebted.💜
Laura right?! The amount of times this song has helped me get through.
my ultimate goal in life is to see her live. i couldn't imagine how amazing it is to hear her there in real life.
Hope you have seen her live now! She’s amazing
@@rhiannonh5202 yes, I saw her live in Vancouver last year, best night ever
She is a goddamn angel.
One of my favorites
Epic, no words, amazing voice and attitude
You are so welcome to turn back to Brazil. we love you !
Queria muito ela de volta aqui = /
One of the best bass lines ever
Love her what a stage presence ❤️
her voice is so heavenly
This is what I'm living for! Yes!
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
'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 could have it any other way
'Cause she's a cruel mistress
And the 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
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
Pockets full of stones
Lay me down
Let the only sound
Be the overflow
This is my favorite performance of her singing what the water gave me 💙
What a beautifully melancholic throwback
I was on acid and still felt her music, im in a wheelchair and was by the bathroims, it was awesome
Truly amazing. Every time I hear this song I'm glad I'm alive, cause otherwise I couldn't enjoy her voice, and this perfect performance. Sometimes this is everything I need.
I've always loved this song
I adore this singer so amazing and full of magic
One of the best bands ever.
Strikingly beautiful, awesome voice and stage presence
This gives me chills, you're amazing
it sucks that i'm halfway across the world from her. hope i could see her live some day
Florence is an actual angel
As magical and spiritual as the original. Slay me you Queen.
Man I love the energy that Flo has jumping around on stage❤
She make you fly
She is the love of my life
I Love your voice Florence 💗💗💗💗
Everything after 3:12 is so spiritual
INSTANT GOOSEBUMPS, FIRST FEW NOTES.
EASILY.
Frisson anyone??!! Oh my FUCK, this song SLAPS 🥰🙏🏼 the way she moves her body is poetic
I love you, Florence 💗
David Waleska Doesn't everybody
Mindblowing, I have no words.
This song is so amazing i cant even
If this show was in Brazil, another energy from the crowd
My favorite song ever 😍😍
The woohoo at the end makes the whole thing even better than the original.
So graceful.
Wow Great !!!!!! So Beautiful!!!!!!!
she is such a queen 💮
I saw her perform live in Melbourne. Only regret was not getting front row. I want to get front row next time she comes to Australia.
My favorite song !
AMEN!!!
this song gives me the vibe of being in church and suddenly start levitating by the sing of the angels.
In early concerts she seemed so innocent and shy, that was just adorable.
Recently she gives the impression she’s gone mad haha
Amo Florence!😍😍😍😍😍🎶🎵

Omg am i the only one in love with her dance moves
She's just like a happy kid
