(Eva:) Colonel Peron (Peron:) Eva
Duarte
(Eva and Peron:) I've heard so much about you
(Eva and
Peron:) I'm amazed, for I'm only an actress [a soldier] Nothing to shout
about [One of the thousands] Only a girl on the air [Defending the country he
loves]
(Eva:) But when you act, the things you do affect us
all
(Peron:) But when you act, you take us away from the squalor of
the real world Are you here on your own?
(Eva:) Yes, oh
yes
(Peron:) So am I, what a fortunate coincidence Maybe you're my
reward for my efforts here tonight
(Eva:) It seems crazy but you must
believe There's nothing calculated, nothing planned Please forgive me if I
seem naive I would never want to force your hand But please understand,
I'd be good for you
I don't always rush in like this Twenty seconds
after saying hello Telling strangers I'm too good to miss If I'm wrong I
hope you'll tell me so But you really should know, I'd be good for you I'd
be surprisingly good for you
I won't go on if I'm boring you But do
you understand my point of view? Do you like what you hear, what you
see And would you be, good for me too?
I'm not talking of a hurried
night A frantic tumble then a shy goodbye Creeping home before it gets too
light That's not the reason that I caught your eye Which has to imply, I'd
be good for you I'd be surprisingly good for you
(Peron:) Please go
on, you enthrall me I can understand you perfectly And I like what I hear,
what I see, and knowing me I would be good for you too
(Eva:) I'm
not talking of a hurried night A frantic tumble then a shy
goodbye Creeping home before it gets too light That's not the reason that
I caught your eye Which has to imply, I'd be good for you I'd be
surprisingly good for you
