It wont 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!

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 desire

They are illusions

They are not the solutions

They promise 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,

All you have to do, is look at me,

To know that every word is true!

Don't cry for me Argentina!
