It won't be easy
you'll think it strange
When I try to explain
how I feel
That I still need your
love after all
that I've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is
a girl you once knew
Although she's
dressed up to the nines
At sixes and
sevens with you
I had to let it happen
I had to change
Couldn't stay all
my life down that hill
Looking out of the
window staying
out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around
trying everything new
But nothing
impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Don't cry for
me Argentina
The truth is
I never left you
All through my
wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep
your distance
And as for fortune
and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed
to the world they
were all I desired
They are illusions
They're not the
solutions they
promised to be
The answer was
here all the time
I love you and
hope you love me
Don't cry for
me Argentina
Have I said too much
There's nothing
more I can think
Of to say to you
But all you have
to do is look at me
To know that
every word is true
Don't cry for
me Argentina
The truth is
I never left you
All through
my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise
Don't keep
your distance
