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'll 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
