now you say you're lonely

you cry 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, nearly drove me out of my head

while you never shed a tear

remember, I remember all that you said

told me love was true, too plebeian being

told me you were through with me and



and now you say you love me

well just prove you do

come and cry me a river

cry cry me a river

cause I cried a river over you



Come on and cry me a river

cry cry me a river

I cried a river over you
