Don't Cry for Me Argentina
Joan Baez
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange When I try to explain how I feel But 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, staring 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 ! 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.
