2 parts oxygen 1 part hydrogen (H2O)...(crap, I got it backwards..)
2 Hydrogen 1 Oxygen..

2 hydrogen, 1 oxygen. H=hydrogen; 2=2 parts; O=oxygen
water is H2O

What is the composition of water?
Everyone is very familiar with water. We observe it as rain and snow and can see it in the oceans, lakes, rivers, and streams. Although the water in our bodies is not as apparent, recognize that most of our weight is made up of water. In fact, the normal adult is made up of approximately 60% water. Thus, water is essential for life.
Water is made up of hydrogen ions (H+) linked to hydroxyl ions (OH-) to form H2O. The molecular formula for water is H2O. From this formula and the atomic weights for hydrogen and oxygen you can calculate that the molecular weight of water is approximately 18 grams.
Note: The atomic weight of hydrogen (H) is 1 gram and the atomic weight of oxygen (O) is 16 grams.

Water = H2O
H = Hydrogen
O = Oxygen
So it's 2 molecules Hydrogen and 1 molecule oxygen... and that's water.

2 molecules of hydrogen + 1 molecule of oxygen = water

2 atoms of Oxygen, 1 atom Hydrogen.

well the bases is 2 parts hydrogen, one part oxygen, however, many other elements may become dissolved, or carried in it, depending on the style of treatment we may purposefully add chemicals to it Chloride is an example of this.
sea water, obviously has salt (NaCl) dissolved in it.
and yeah the list continues like that.

H 2 O
just like most of the other answers.
water, water everywhere. and not a drop to drink!

H2O
But it really depends on what water you are talking about...
The water at Bondi Beach (Sydney) a couple of years ago had a few other things floating around in it from the sewage...
