[Verse 1]
Now you say that you're sorry
For bein' untrue, you wanna cry
[Chorus]
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, I cried a river over you
[Verse 2]
Now you say that you're lonely
For bein' untrue, you wanna cry
[Chorus]
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, oh, I cried
I cried a river over you
[Bridge]
You nearly drove me out of my head
You never shed a tear, no
I remember all the little things you said
You told me love was too plebeian
And now you're through with me
And oh...!
[Chorus]
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you're gonna cry
I cried a river over you
[Bridge]
You nearly drove me out of my head
You never shed a tear, no no
I remember all the little things you said
You told me love was too plebeian
And now you're through with me
And oh...!
[Vamp]
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you're gonna cry
I cried a river over you
Oh yes I did, now cry!
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you wanna cry
Cry me a river, me a river
Cry me a river, you're gonna cry
I cried a river over you
Yes I did, now
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
Oh yes I did, now
I cried a river over you
I cried... cried a river
Over you oh, over you...!
Yeaaah...
