Story Behind The Song
literally...the image of a paper cup that I remember as a kid, just like I describe in the Long Description, came to me. I thought it the perfect analogy and image of true immeasurable love.
Song Description
Imagine a Dixie paper cup...filled with water, and left unattended for hours. Upon your return, the water has soaked and seeped right thru...water beading up on the outside, but still held by the cup. Like love, brimming through any boundaries and remaining intact!

Lyrics
I have flown on empty wings
I've been shown what sadness brings
I've had oceans in my head
turned into dried river beds
But somewhere in those desert dreams
I dive into your deepest streams
It's your love surrounds me
As I wait here for your love to drown me
My heart is a paper cup
Your love is what fills it up
Soaks right thru me and surrounds me
All your love all around me
Love is Water Love is Ice
Love can drown or baptize
I've been years without the rain
Now I know Love's other name
If only you could swim through be
Like water in the deepest sea
Then you'd know what I feel
When all your love flows over me
My heart is a paper cup
Your love is what fills it up
Soaks right thru me and surrounds me
All your love all around me
bridge:
Sometimes I fill up my
Sea with a notion
Then I float in my boat
Asleep on your ocean
My heart is a paper cup
Your love is what fills it up
Soaks right thru me and surrounds me
All your love all around me
