(Evita, Evita, Evita, Evita)
(Evita, Evita, Evita)
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 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
[Chorus:]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
My soul is with you
My whole life I dedicate to you
Don't keep your distance
I need you
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 promise to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
[chorus]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
My soul is with you
My whole life I dedicate to you
Don't keep your distance
[Chorus 2:]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
I have never abandoned you
Even in silence, my soul shouts to you
Today and forever
(I am Argentine)
I am Argentine
(Ahh, so I chose freedom for Argentina, ahh)
(Don't cry for me)
(Evita, Evita, Evita, Evita)
(Evita, Evita, Evita)
So I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
[chorus]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
My soul is with you
My whole life I dedicate to you
Don't keep your distance
[Chorus 2:]
Don't cry for me, Argentina
I have never abandoned you
Even in silence, my soul shouts to you
Today and forever
(I am Argentine)
I am Argentine
Don't cry for me
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
