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 that hill
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're not the solutions they promised to be
the answer was here all the time
i love you and hope you love me
