“The Water” is a duet sung with Laura Marling. In an interview with The Spectator, Flynn said:

‘It was about trying to get the male and female voices like river currents, swirling around each other, tracing each other, overlapping.’

The Water Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All that I have is a river
The river is always my home
Lord, take me away, for I just cannot stay
Or I'll sink in my skin and my bones

[Chorus]
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying...

[Verse 2]
Please help me build a small boat
One that'll ride on the flow
Where the river runs deep and the larger fish creep
I'm glad of what keeps me afloat

[Chorus]
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying...

[Verse 3]
Now deeper the water I sail
And faster the current I'm in
That each night brings the stars and the song in my heart
Is a tune for the journeyman's tale

[Chorus]
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying...

[Bridge]
Now the land that I knew is a dream
And the line on the distance grows faint
So wide is my river, the horizon a sliver
The artist has run out of paint

[Verse 4]
Where the blue of the sea meets the sky
And the big yellow sun leads me home
I'm everywhere now; the way is a vow
To the wind of each breath by and by

[Chorus]
The water sustains me without even trying
The water can't drown me, I'm done
With my dying...
