It won't be easy, you'll 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
Night 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
That I knew, but nothing impressed
Me all. I never expected it to.

Chorus:
Don't cry for me Argentina. The truth
Is I never left you. All through my
Wild days, my mad existence, I've
Kept my promise, don't keep your
Distance.

And as for fortune and as for fame,
I nevr 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.

Chorus:
Don't cry for me Argentina. The truth
Is I never left you. All through my
Wild days, my mad existence, I've
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.
