You pulled me into a lovely romance
Hypnotized me and put me in a trance
I fell for you and forgot how to stand
You're standing right there please give me a hand
You put me on a pedestal and made me feel high
You took the ground away and I fell through the sky
Cry me a river so that I can drown
Throw yourself overboard and pull me down
You beckoned me forth with your sweet siren call
You put on a mask and I fell for it all
Not sure when it happened but soon I had found
That you didn't accept me didn't want me around
Thought we were equals playing even parts
But you had the high ground right from the start
You put me on a pedestal you made me feel high
You took the ground away and I fell through the sky
Cry me a river so that I can drown
Throw yourself overboard and pull me down
You beckoned me forth with your sweet siren call
You put on a mask and I fell for it all
I tried to pull away but you came right back
But what I forgot is that opposites attract
You clung to my leg I was shackled to a weight
This freely flying balloon has begun to deflate
Cry me a river so that I can drown
Throw yourself overboard and pull me down
You beckoned me forth with your sweet siren call
You put on a mask and I fell for it all
Cry me a river and I'll try not to drown
As you throw yourself overboard and pull me down
You beckoned me forth with your sweet siren call
And I guess I fell for it all
