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   Come on and cry me a river, cry me a river   I cried a river over you      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 love me      Well, just to prove you do   Come on, cry me a river, cry me a river   I cried a river over you
