Don't Cry for Me Argentina [New Broadway Cast Recording [2012]] lyrics

[Eva:]

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 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

[Officer:]

Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants

[Eva's Mother:]

We shall see, little man

[Crowd:]

Evita Peron! La Santa Peronista!

Evita Peron! La Santa Peronista!

Evita Peron! La Santa Peronista!

[Eva:]

I am only a simple woman who lives to serve Peron

in his noble crusade to rescue his people!

I was once as you are now

and I have taken these riches from the Oligarchs

only for you--for all of you!

One day you too will inherit these treasures! Descamisados! Mis Descamisados!

When they fire those cannons,

When the crowds sing of glory, it is not just for Peron,

But for all of us! All of us!

[Aristocrats:]

Things have reached a pretty pass

When someone pretty lower class

Can be accepted and admired
