It won′t be easy

You think it’s 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 desire

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 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!
