Cry Me a River

Cry me a river, let your tears flow
Drown me in sorrow, the pain that you know
Let me feel the weight of your broken heart
And together, we'll heal the pieces torn apart

Pour out your anguish, your fears and regrets
In this river of tears, let them all be set
Feel the cathartic release, the weight off your chest
As you drain your emotions, in this watery nest

Let the current carry away your pain
As it flows downstream, and out of your veins
Watch as the water swallows your grief
And know that in this moment, you can find relief

For the river will wash away your tears
And with it, your worries, doubts, and fears
So cry me a river, let your emotions reign
And together, we'll find peace in the pain.
