Don't Cry for Me, Argentina (from "Evita") Lyrics

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 afterall that I've done:

You won't believe me
AII 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 choose 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:
AII 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
The truth is I never left you:
AII 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 ev'ry word is true.
