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 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 too



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



Have I said 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



I kept my promise

Don't keep your distance
