Don't Cry For Me, Marguerita
by Citoyenne Ainsley & Baroness Austen
Sung to "Don't Cry For Me, Argentina" from "Evita"
(Sung by Percy to Marguerite, while explaining his duel identity
)

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 guy you once knew
Although he's dressed up in ruby satin
And those demned Barbie shoes.

I had to let it happen
I had to change
Couldn't stay all my life mourning you
Looking out of the window like Mr. Darcy
So I chose action
Running around, saving everyone's neck
But nothing impressed me at all
All I really wanted was you...

(Chorus) Don't cry for me, Marguerita
The truth is, I never left you
All through my wild days
My mad existance
I kept my promise
Don't keep your distance

And as for fashion
And as for frou-frou
I never invited them in
Though it seemed to the world
They were all I desired
They are illusions
They're 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, Marguerita...
(Margot starts humming)

(Chorus)

Have I said too much?
There's so much 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...
