Don't Cry for Me Argentina lyrics

It won't be easy, you'll think it strange

When I try to explain how I feel

But 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, staring 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 are 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.
