rate me

Song by Madonna and Jonathan Pryce<br /><br>

[Eva:] Colonel Peron<br>

[Peron:] Eva Duarte<br>

<br>

[Eva and Peron:]<br>

I've heard so much about you<br>

<br>

[Eva and Peron:]<br>

I'm amazed, for I'm only an actress (a soldier)<br>

Nothing to shout about (One of the thousands)<br>

Only a girl on the air (Defending the country he loves)<br>

<br>

[Eva:]<br>

But when you act, the things you do affect us all<br>

<br>

[Peron:]<br>

But when you act, you take us away from the squalor of the real world<br>

Are you here on your own?<br>

<br>

[Eva:]<br>

Yes, oh yes<br>

<br>

[Peron:]<br>

So am I, what a fortunate coincidence<br>

Maybe you're my reward for my efforts here tonight<br>

<br>

[Eva:]<br>

It seems crazy but you must believe<br>

There's nothing calculated, nothing planned<br>

Please forgive me if I seem naive<br>

I would never want to force your hand<br>

But please understand, I'd be good for you<br>

<br>

I don't always rush in like this<br>

Twenty seconds after saying hello<br>

Telling strangers I'm too good to miss<br>

If I'm wrong I hope you'll tell me so<br>

But you really should know, I'd be good for you<br>

I'd be surprisingly good for you<br>

<br>

I won't go on if I'm boring you<br>

But do you understand my point of view?<br>

Do you like what you hear, what you see<br>

And would you be, good for me too?<br>

<br>

I'm not talking of a hurried night<br>

A frantic tumble then a shy goodbye<br>

Creeping home before it gets too light<br>

That's not the reason that I caught your eye<br>

Which has to imply, I'd be good for you<br>

I'd be surprisingly good for you<br>

<br>

[Peron:]<br>

Please go on, you enthrall me<br>

I can understand you perfectly<br>

And I like what I hear, what I see, and knowing me<br>

I would be good for you too<br>

<br>

[Eva:]<br>

I'm not talking of a hurried night<br>

A frantic tumble then a shy goodbye<br>

Creeping home before it gets too light<br>

That's not the reason that I caught your eye<br>

Which has to imply, I'd be good for you<br>

I'd be surprisingly good for you<br>

<br>
