Words by Tim Rice

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber

from
"Evita"

Lyrics

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 six's 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..

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..
