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 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 to plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do.

Come on and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you.
