It won't be easy, you'll think it strange

那不容易你將會認為不可思議

When I try to explain how I feel

當我試圖說明我的感受

That I still need your love after all that I've done

在我做了所有這些之後我仍然需要你的愛

You won't believe me

你不會相信

All you will see is a girl you once knew

你所看到的全部是一個你曾經認識的女孩

Although she's dressed up to the nines

雖然她現在盛裝打扮

At sixes and sevens with you

和你一起時卻穿得亂七八糟

I had to let it happen, I had to change

我必須讓它發生我必須有所改變

Couldn't stay all my life down at heel

不能讓我一生都停滯在邋遢

Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun

望著窗外躲著太陽

So I chose freedom

所以我選擇了自由

Running around trying everything new

藉口說要嘗試所有新鮮事

But nothing impressed me at all

The truth is I never left you

All through my wild days

在我整個狂野的日子裡

My mad existence

I kept my promise

Don't keep your distance

And as for fortune, and as for fame

至於機運至於名譽

I never invited them in

我從未邀請它們

Though it seemed to the world they were all I desired

雖然世人似乎認為它們是我所想要的

They are illusions

它們是幻象

They are not the solutions they promised to be

它們不是它們承諾成為的解答

The answer was here all the time

答案始終在這

I love you and hope you love me

我愛你希望你也愛我

Have I said too much?

There's nothing more I can think of to say to you

沒有其它我能想到要跟你說的

But all you have to do is look at me

所有你必須做的是看著我

To know that every word is true

「阿根廷，別為我哭泣」是安德魯•韋伯1978年在英國首演音樂劇「Evita」當中的一首歌，最喜歡Sinéad O’Connor在1992年”Am I not your girl？”專輯中的版本。至於「歌劇魅影」，還是屬Sarah Brightman版本最優。
