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 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 desired
  They 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 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
