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're 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 to 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
