===============================================================================

You were my sun

You were my earth

But you didn't know all the ways I loved you, no

So you took a chance,

And made other plans.

But I bet you didn't think your thing would come crashing down, no

You don't have to say, what you did

I already know, I found out from him

Now there's just no chance

For you and me, there'll never be

And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me

Why did you leave me, all alone?

Now you tell me you need me

When you call me, on the phone

Girl I refuse, you must have me confused

With some other guy

Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn

To cry, cry me a river

Cry me a river...

Cry me a river

Cry me a river, yeah yeah

I know that they say

That somethings are better left unsaid

It wasn't like you only talked to him and you know it

(Don't act like you don't know it)

All of these things people told me

Keep messing with my head

(Messing with my head)

You should've picked honesty

Then you may not have blown it (yeah)

You don't have to say, what you did,

(Don't have to say, what you did) I already know, I found out from him

(I already know, uh)

Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be

(No chance, you and me)

And don't it make you sad about it

You told me you loved me

Why did you leave me, all alone (all alone)

Now you tell me you need me

When you call me, on the phone (when you call me on the phone)

Girl I refuse, you must have me confused

With some other guy (I'm not like them baby)

Your bridges were burned, and now it's your turn (It's your turn)

To cry, cry me a river

(Go on and just)

Cry me a river (Go on and just)

Cry me a river

(Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river, yea yea

Oh, The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh The damage is done

So I guess I be leaving

Oh The damage is done

So I guess I be... leaving

You don't have to say, what you did,

(Don't have to say, what you did) I already know, I found out from him

(I already know, uh)

Now there's just no chance, for you and me, there'll never be

(No chance, you and me)

And don't it make you sad about it

Cry me a river (Go on and just)

Cry me a river (Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river (You can go on and just)

Cry me a river, yea yea

Cry me a river (Baby go on and just)

Cry me a river (Go on and just)

Cry me a river (Cause I've already cried)

Cry me a river, yea yea (Ain't gonna cry no more, yea-yea)

Cry me a river

Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river, oh (Cry me, cry me)

Cry me a river (Cry me, cry me)
