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 seems 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... Don't cry for me Argentina.
