Break in the Cup Lyrics

I try so hard to please you
To be the love that fills you up
I try to pour on sweet affection
But I think you got a broken cup.
Because you cant believe I love you
I try to tell you that there is no doubt
But as soon as fill you with all Ive got
That little break will let it run right out

I cannot make you happy
Im learning love and money never do
But I can pour myself out til Im empty
Trying to be just who youd want me to
I cannot make you happy
Even though our love is true
For theres a break in the cup that holds love
Inside of you

Now I begin to understand you
As you explain the fear you feel
Its when you see me fall into that sorrow
That makes you doubt the love is real
Because lonely wind still blows through me
I turn away so you cant see
But now how can I still be so empty
With all this love that you pour on me?

I guess you cannot make me happy
And thats a money-back guarantee
But you can pour yourself out til youre empty
Trying to be just whod I want you to be
You cannot make me happy
Its just the law of gravity
And that break in the cup that holds love
Inside of me

So if youre tempted to rescue me
Drowning in this quicksand up to my neck
Before you grab my hand to save me
Why dont you ask me if Im finished yet?
You cannot make me happy
Not when theres empty inside of me
But you can pull yourself right in here with me
My miseryd love to have your company

We cannot trade empty for empty
We must go to the waterfall
For theres a break in the cup that holds love
A break in the cup that holds love
A break in the cup that holds love
Inside us all

Inside us all
