It won't be easy, you'll think it's strange

When I try to explain how I feel

And 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 choose freedom

Running 'round, trying everything new

But nothing impressed me at all

Well I never expected it too



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



As for fortune and as for fame

Well I never invited them in

Though it seems to the world

They were all I desired



They were 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

The truth is I never left you

All through my wild days, my mad existence

I kept my promise, don't keep your distance

I kept my promise, don't keep your distance
