Now you say you need me
Why don't you prove you do?
C'mon and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

Now you say you're sorry
For being so untrue
C'mon and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember? I remember every word you said
Told me, 'love was to plebeian'
Told me, 'you were through with me'

Now you say you love me
Why don't you prove you do?
C'mon and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

You drove me, nearly drove me out of my head
While you never shed a tear
Remember? I remember every word you said
Told me, 'love was to plebeian'
Told me, 'you were through with me'

And now you say you love me
Why don't you prove you do?
You can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
I cried a river over you
