I’d Be Surprisingly Good for You

[Eva]

Colonel Peron

[Peron]

Eva Duarte

[Eva, Peron, both]

I'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?

[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 and I 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

[Both]

There is no one, no one at all

Never has been and never will be a lover male or female

Who hasn't an eye on, in fact they rely on

Tricks they can try on their partner

They're hoping their lover will help them or keep them

Support them, promote them

Don't blame them, you're the same
