Cry Me A River

I'm on another continent

And I am so content in it

You are my holiday now

And I will celebrate you well

You said, "Hello, how are you?"

"I'm very well, thank you, and you?"

"Oh, life is swell" "Well, we're so well"

I'm very, very well

Was feeling quite content

'Til like a compliment

You rear your ugly head

And smite the smile

Cry me a river that I can swim inside

And keep me around

I really never stay a while

And I'm happier than a funeral

And I wish it was mine

Would fill me with life

Fill me with life

This week's been rough and it's rough ahead

Would be fine if I was in your bed instead

I'm on another continent

And I can't stand one bit of it

And if I pass the time enough

I can crawl back into my bed

What are you gonna do?

Drop a bomb and see what's new?

Give me a point of view

And I'll get back to you

Cry me a river that I can swim inside

And keep me around, keep chasing the sun

You know it never stays a while

And I'm happier than a funeral

And I wish it was mine

Would fill me with life

Fill me with life

Cry me a river

Cry me a river

Cry me a river

Cry me a river
