Now you say you're lonely You cried the long 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, cried, 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 You told me love was too plebeian Told me you were through with me and Now you say, you say you love me Well, just to prove that you do Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river Cause I cried a river over you
