Don't Cry for Me Argentina

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

Instrumental
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
