Ray Charles–
1964 Sweet & sour tears
(di:Arthur Hamilton)
Now you say you’re lonely
You cried the long night through
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I’ve 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’ve 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 to plebeian
Told me you were through with me and
Now you say you love me
Well, just to prove you do
Well, you can cry me a river
Cry me a river
I’ve cried a river over you
