Cry me a river

I whisper softly but the words no longer say
So now we watch it gently drift away
Blasted with the sigh, surrounded with tears
So upon this mountain, I rest my fears
Brother, am I a fool?

You can cry me a river, cry me a river
I could be swimming in your sea when you cry me a river
I cried a river for you

What kind of fool am I to think that you'd stay?
I hold the cup against my lips and i taste
Fills me with desire, fills me with hate
So upon my knees I'll wait

You can cry me a river, cry me a river
I could be swimming in your sea when you cry me a river
I cried a river for you

There are rivers to be filled
That doesn't change the way that I choose to live
All you said were lies
Now you're only waiting for rivers to be cried

Cry me a river cuz a cried one for you
There ain't no mountain i wouldn't climb for you
What kinda fool am i to think that you'll stay
I hold the cup cuz i miss the taste
