Now you say you're lonely You cry the long night thru Well, you can cry me a river Cry me a river I cried a river over you Now you say you're sorry For bein' so untrue Well, you can cry me a river Cry me a river I cried a river over you You drove me, nearly drove me, Out of my head While you never shed a tear Remember, I remember all that you said Told me love was too plebeian Told me you were thru with me An' now you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Come on, an' cry me a river Cry me a river I cried a river over you An' now you say you love me Well, just to prove you do Come on, an' cry me a river Cry me a river I cried a river over you I cried a river over you I cried a river over you I cried a river over you I cried a river over you I cried a river over you
