[Verse 1]
Now you say you're lonely
You cry the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

[Verse 2]
Now you say you're sorry
For bein' so untrue
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
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

[Break]
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a puddle over you
[Bridge]
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

[Verse 3]
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Come on and cry me a river, a big fat river
'Cause I cried a river over you

[Outro]
I cried a river over you
