Now you say you're lonely
You cried the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me
You nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember?
I remember all you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just to prove that you do
Come one and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
You drove me
You nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Oh, remember?
I remember all that you said
Told me love was too plebeian
Told me you were through with me
And now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come one and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried, I cried a river over you
Cry me a river
