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
|
|
|
|
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
|
