earthlove asked:


cry me a river , the beautiful jazz standard, but its difficult for me to understand these words ,

“cry me a river? ” it is grammatical sentence?

” I cried a river over you” it means i shed tears like a river because of you?

    It simply means that someone cried a lot, so much that it seemed like a river or a river of tears running down their face.

    It’s not a factual line but more of a sentimental statement of feelings.
