Day #8- "The Cup of Your Hand"

Sometimes there are things about a loved one that we find hard to love.

We could be talking about a boyfriend, wife, brother, parent, or even God. There are some aspects of people that we find difficult to stomach- difficult to love or even believe.

This song is about choosing to love all of someone. Not just the parts that we find lovable or easy to agree with. Every single difficult, confusing, and irritating part.

"The Cup of Your Hand"

I love every single part of you
The things that make me nervous
And the arms that keep me true

I love the things you say that I dont get
But explain to me forever
So the lies I will forget

Even though I'm a fool
I'm a fool for you

You're a mystery to me
It only makes me love you more
For if I knew every part of you
There'd be nothing to explore
Your heart is an ocean
And I'm a desperate man
Desperate for a drink
From the cup of your hand

I could go on for days and days
Of the things your love does to me
For the ways you keep me sane

But mostly I'll always thirst for more
Oh I pray I never wander
That you'll keep an open door
