Evita: I'd Be Surprisingly Good For You

EVAColonel Peron?PERONEva Duarte?EVA and PERONI've heard so much about you!
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?EVAYes, Oh yes.PERON
So am I--what a fortunate coincidence. Maybe you're my
Reward for my efforts here tonight.EVAIt seems crazy but you must believe
There's nothing calculated, nothing plannedPlease forgive me if I seem naive
I would never want to force your handBut please understandI'd be good for you.
I don't always rush in like thisTwenty seconds after saying hello
Telling strangers I'm too good to missIf I'm wrong I hope you'll tell me so
But you really should knowI'd be good for youI'd be surprisingly good for you.
I won't go on if I'm boring youBut do you understand my point of view
Do you like what you hear, what you see, and would you beGood for me too?
I'm not talking of a hurried nightA frantic tumble then a shy goodbye
Creeping home before it gets too light
That's not the reason that I caught your eyeWhich has to imply
I'd be good for youI'd be surprisingly good for youPERON
Please go on--you enthrall me!I can understand you perfectly
And I like what I hear, what I see, and knowing meI would be good for you tooEVA
I'm not talking of a hurried nightA frantic tumble then a shy goodbye
Creeping home before it gets too light
That's not the reason that I caught your eyeWhich has to imply
