Cry Me A River

I keep on runnin', baby
I keep on runnin' but I just can't hide
Lord, I just can't hide

I keep on hurtin', baby
I keep on hurtin' so deep inside
So deep inside

Lord, I need your smile, child
Like the one I once knew
Made my grass green and my blue skies blue
Lord, was time when two was one
Tell me, little girl, where've all the good times gone

Lord, I say
I'm gonna cry me a river
Wash my blues all away
I'm gonna cry me a river
Girl, you're my riverboat, yeah
Baby, take me away

I'm reachin' out my hand
Won't you please help me to my feet once again
Oh, once again

Tears just fallin' like rain
Lord, it's a time when everybody needs a friend
Girl, where've you been

Lord, I need your smile, child
Like the one I once knew
Made my grass green and my blue skies blue
Lord, was time when two was one
Tell me, little girl, where've all the good times gone

Lord, I say
I'm gonna cry me a river
Wash my blues all away
I'm gonna cry me a river
Girl, you're my riverboat, yeah
Baby, take me away
Oh, take away, child

Oh Lord, I say
I'm gonna cry me a river
Wash my blues all away
I'm gonna cry me a river
Lord, wash my blues away

I'm gonna cry me a river
Wash my blues away
I'm gonna cry me a river
Girl, you're my riverboat, oh yeah
Baby, come take me away
