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 too
*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
repeat *
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
