"Wind on the Water" is a 1975 album released by Crosby & Nash.

This was Crosby & Nash's second album as a duo; it was also their first for ABC Records, although, interestingly, cassette and 8-track versions of the album were distributed by their previous label, Atlantic Records. "Wind on the Water" surprised many listeners with its heavier rock numbers and its trenchant lyrics about aging and death. Crosby and Nash were in their thirties and approaching middle age, and events in personal lives, such as the death of Crosby's mother (which "Carry Me" was partially written about) also affected their songwriting.

"Wind on the Water" is considered an "adult rock" album by many critics, many of them suggesting that it reflects the more mature outlook of two men who are more traveled and more seasoned than younger performers.
