[Verse 1]
Boy, I know you're really havin' a hard time with goodbye
But I'm already movin' on, don't care how hard you
Try to get me back
It's way too late for that
[Pre-Chorus]
But honestly, I could use a little break
A weekend vacation out on the bank
[Chorus]
So cry me a river
I'll just sit on the edge
Dip my toes in the water
Have a drink with some friends
Work on my tan lines in the sunshine
'Cause my sky's the good kind of blue
You can cry me a river
But I'm still over you
[Verse 2]
Bring on all the miss-me tears like the rain from above
I'll put a paper umbrella all up in my cup
And cheers to bein' free
This goodbye's been so good to me
[Chorus]
So cry me a river
I'll just sit on the edge (I'll just sit on the edge)
Dip my toes in the water
Have a drink with some friends (Have a drink with some friends)
Work on my tan lines in the sunshine
'Cause my sky's the good kind of blue
You can cry me a river
But I'm still over you
[Post-Chorus]
Mm-mm, mm-mm, mm
[Bridge]
Go on, cry me a river
You're the one that left me so that you could get with her (You could get with her)
Go on, cry me a river
Nah, it ain't my fault you think of me when you kiss her
[Chorus]
Go on, cry me a river
I'll just sit on the edge (I'll just sit on the edge)
Dip my toes in the water (In the water)
Have a drink with some friends (Have a drink with some friends)
Work on my tan lines in the sunshine
'Cause my sky's the good kind of blue
You can cry me a river
But I'm still over you
[Outro]
But I'm still over you
