lyrics

Fill up my cup let it overflow
Sit by the banks of the Ohio
Take out my troubles and watch them float
On down the river to the Gulf of Mexico
And all I ever wanted or could have dreamed
(fill up my cup, in the middle garden)
Don't matter quite as much as it seemed
(my breath starts to rust, and my heart to harden)
'cause if I can't really trust what I think that I know
(the spiraling Dark denigrates my mind)
And if it doesn't really matter which way that I go
(just give me one more, I'll be good this time)
Fill up my cup in the Middle Garden
(come Holy Spirit, take away my sin)
With Love and with Truth and with Fruit and with Pardon
(or, I'll never get enough of the fix I'm in...)

Fill up my cup let it overflow
(fill up my cup, in the middle garden)
Looking for the light by the shape of my shadow
(can't get enough, once I have started)
'cause I can only see my self by the shade that I throw
(the caverns are deep in my ailing mind)
Fumbling all around for the right way to go
(give me one more, it'll work this time)
In the dazzling dark of the Grinning Gap
(fill up my cup, take away my sin)
I'm scared that what brought me here can't carry me back
(give me the door out of where I've been...)
But the paths that I walk through the Middle Garden
Meet up at the forks on the way 2 become 1 again
Like the veins in a leaf on a branch of a Tree
Like a short kiss goodbye in a worn memory
How can I long for something inside of me?
I guess it doesn't really matter as much as it's seemed
So fill up my cup in the Middle Garden
With Love and with Truth and with Fruit and with Pardon

Fill up my Cup let it overflow x4
