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 too plebeian,
Told me you were through with me, and,
Now you say you love me, well, just to prove it's true,
You can cry me a river, cry me a river,
I cried a river over you.

Cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you.
