Don't Cry for Me Argentina

It won't be easy

You'll think it's 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 at heel

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

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

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
