Текст песни Don't Cry For Me Argentina (New Broadway Cast Recording 2012) - Andrew Lloyd Webber

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 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

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

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

Just listen to that, the voice of Argentina
We are adored, we are loved
Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants
We shall see, little man

Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista

Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista
Evita Peron, la santa peronista (I am only a simple woman)

Who lives to serve Peron (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
In his noble crusade to rescue his people (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
I once was as you are now (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
I have taken these riches from the oligarchs

Only for you, for all of you (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
One day, you will inherit these treasures (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
Descamisados, mis descamisados (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
When they fire those cannons (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
When the crowds sing of glory (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
It is not just for Peron, but for all of us (Evita Peron, la santa peronista)
All of us

Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower-class
Can be respected and admired
