Nina Simone
Cry Me A River
[Verse 1]
And now, you say you're lonely
You cried the long night through

[Chrorus]
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 being so untrue

[Chorus]
Go on and cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

[Bridge]
Well, you drove me
You really drove me out of my head
Well you never shed a tear
Vee-vee-va-vum-vee-da-da-dum
Remember, I remember all that you said
Said love was too plebian
Sayin' you were through with me and
[Verse 3]
Now you say you love me
Well just to prove, to prove you do
Vee-va-bwa-bwa-vee-ah-bah

[Chorus]
Well, Cry me a river
Cry me a river
I cried a river over you

[Bridge]
La-vum-va-va-vee
Bee-va-va-vum
Vee-va-va-va
Vum-va-va-va-vee-vum-vum
Skee-va-va-vum-doo-da-da-da-vee-va-va-va-vum-dee
Da-da-da-da-da-da-ee-ee
Ba-ba-ba-bum-ba-bee-vee-vee-vum-va-dee-dee
Vee-va-wee, vee-va-wee-ee-ee-ooh
Come on Tony
Yeah

[Verse 4]
Well, you drove me
You really drove me out of my head
Well, you never shed a tear
Vuh-va-va-vee-va-vee
Remember, I remember all that you said
Ooh, said love was to plebian
Saying you were through with me and
Now, you say you love me!
Well just to prove, to prove you do
Da-da-da-ba-ba-bum-dwee-ba-bum-uh
[Chorus]
Cry me a river
I said, cry me a river
I cried a river, over you
Well baby, I cried a river over you
Well baby, said I, cried for you!
