I jolted, I was moved but just for a minute
I was broken and bruised for a short time
My hurt was more than the ocean
Oh cry me a river!
Let me frown all day
Leave me alone on pity's bank
Oh cry me a river!
Wide and deep so I can store my agony
Fill it with stones to cut my feet
So I can adore my open sores
To feed my pain
Oh cry me a river today!
