It wont be easy you’ll think it strange when
I try to explain how I feel
You won´t believe me all you’ll see is a
girl you once knew
Although she’s dressed up to the nights 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 ilusions, 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, the truth
is I never left you
I kept my promise, don’t keep your
distance
Have I said too much?
But all you have to do is look at me
To know that every word is true.
I kept my promise
Don’t keep your distance
Every word is true
Don’t cry for me Argentina!
