Now you say you're lonely
Said you cried the whole night through
Well, you can cry me a river, cry me a river
'Cause I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For bein' so untrue
So what? Just cry me a river, cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me, you nearly drove out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember, I remember all 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
Go on and cry me a river
I'd like to see you cry me a river
'Cause I'm tired of crying
Over you
