There's some really beautiful moments here: when the hands spin across the screen as she says "I lost his hand in the current", when the bridge comes and the snare pops just so, and again when the instruments die off for the final chorus and she sings so lovely. This music is so heartfelt it's dug its way into my heart.

Man this song is so magical. The instrumental is as gorgeous as always, so are Molly's vocals (to a point where both almost synchronize in an infinitely satisfying way) and all of that is pulled together by the whiplash of the lyrics painting an atmosphere of absolute tragedy.
A masterpiece. Love Alvvays.

The moment at 1:05 for music, lyrics, and visuals is so perfect. It hits me with a tidal wave of emotions every time. To me it's about losing one's path in life and not a lost love. I lost myself, it was the life I loved, and now I'm left trying to put it back together.

We walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
I caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
You took something before you went in the shower
To help suppress the things that make you feel uptight
And if I had known you couldn't swim
We'd never have gone in
I left my love in the river
The only one who sees
I lost his hand in the current
It was the life I wanted and I'd hoped for
And now I am left sifting through the leaves
The sun's so hard I saw his skin through his t-shirt
The grass so tall we knew he wouldn't be found
We climbed into the stream so no one would be hurt
And in no time at all there wasn't a sound
If I had known you couldn't swim
We'd never have gone in
I left my love in the river
The only one who sees
I lost his hand in the current
It was the life I wanted and I'd hoped for
And now I am left sifting through the leaves
No colour to his skin
Inform the next of kin
No colour to his skin
I left my love in the river
The only one I see
I left his hand in the current
And now I am left looking through the trees

This is the happiest song about drowning i've ever heard.
