Don't Cry For Me Argentina — Sinead O Connor

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
