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 doneYou 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 youI 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 sunSo I chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it tooDon'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 distanceAnd as for fortune, and as for fame
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world
They were all I desiredThey are illusions
They are not the solutions they promised to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love meDon'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 distanceHave 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
