Cry Me a Rive

by Lesley Gore

on I'll Cry If I Want To (1963)

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

Now you say you're sorry,
For being so untrue.
Well you can 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,
All that 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,
Come on and 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
I cried a river over you
