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
you never shed a tear
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
you can cry me a river
cry me a river
i cried a river over you
