DON'T
CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA
(Julie Covington)
It won't be easy, you'll think it's 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 eve'rything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to.
.
CHORUS
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 a 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.
.
