Default HELP!! Clutch stays on floor while bleeding

Just replaced the clutch, master cylinder and slave. Now I'm trying to bleed the system and it stays on the floor after I open the valve. I can close the valve and pull the pedal off the floor and everything works fine. I've haven't heard about this before. HELP!!!
