Who would've thought that using water as a metaphor for love could be … sexy?

Between his sultry vocals and the song's burning guitar line, Patrick Droney made his single "Like The Water," off his 2021 album, State of the Heart (The Deluxe Edition), as swoon-worthy as it is heartfelt. And when he brought the track to life in the studio for the latest episode of Positive Vibes Only, the song's romantic undertones became all the more tangible.

Watch Patrick Droney Sing Soulful "Like The Water"

"Your love is like the water/Your love is like the dark blue under the waves/I'm only drifting farther/The way you pull me under every day," the New-Jersey-born singer croons on the track's chorus.

Finishing with an echoing guitar solo reminiscent of John Mayer, Droney's performance leaves viewers hanging on every word.

"Sweet Ever After" is one of the standout tracks from Holcomb's 2021 album, Canyon. The Grand-Canyon-inspired album served as the follow-up to the Christian singer/songwriter's critically acclaimed second album, Red Sea Road, which peaked at No. 3 on Billboard's Top Christian Albums chart in 2017.

When describing the inspiration behind Canyon, Holcomb said, "We all know what it's like to have our hearts break and split wide open like a canyon, but there in the middle of our deepest pit of sorrow, there's a river running through." She uses the above performance to remind listeners of that river within.
