My cup runneth over is a quotation from the Hebrew Bible Psalm 23:5 and means I have more than enough for my needs, though interpretations and usage vary. This phrase, in Hebrew כוסי רויה kōsî rəwāyāh, is translated in the traditionally used King James Version as my cup runneth over. Newer translations of the phrase include my cup overflows and my cup is completely full.

In only a momentWe both will be oldWe won't even noticeThe world turning cold
