Don't Cry For Me Argentina

 
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When I try to explain² how I feel
That I still need your love after all that I've done
You won't believe³ 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 had⁴ to let it happen, I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life⁵ down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So I chose freedom
Running around trying everything new
But nothing impressed⁶ me at all
I never expected⁷ it to

1-Don't cry for me Argentina
The truth⁸ is I never left you
All through my wild⁹ days
My mad¹⁰ existence¹¹, I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance¹³

And as¹ for fortune¹⁴, and as for fame
I never invited¹⁵ them in
Though it seemed¹⁶ to the world they were all I desired
They are illusions
They are not the solutions¹⁷ they promised¹² to be
The answer was¹⁸ here all the time
I love you and hope¹⁹ you love me
(repeat ..1)

Have I said²⁰ too much? There's nothing more
I can think of to say to you
But all you have to do is look at me to know
That every word is true
