physics question about a cup submerged in water.?

If you take a cup and submerge it in water, allowing it to fill up, then turn it upside down and then slowly lift it from the water, the water stays in the cup. When doing this you can actually lift the cup slightly out of the water before the water falls from the cup. What causes this?
