1.A Cinema In Buenos Aires, 26 July 1952
(an audience is watching a less than distinguished movie.
[in both the original london and new york productions of
Evita, a clip from one of eva peron's own movies was used].
The soundtrack dialogue is in spanish, the music melodramatic.)
(julieta:) carlos.
(carlos:) julieta, mi querida julieta.
(julieta:) carlos, no tendrs que haber venido.
(carlos:) julieta, ni un millar de soldados me puede detener.
(julieta:) pero es peligroso, mi padre te arrestar?
(carlos:) ten que venir.
(julieta:) arlos!
(carlos:) hasta este momento, mis labios no han osado murmurar
La palabra amor.
(julieta:) carlos.
(carlos:) y mucho m que eso, mi ser todo vibra de deseo.
u?fue eso? algo se movi?en el balc de tu
Padre. si fuera ese truh de rodolfo, juro que mi espada no
Permanecer?en su vaina.
(julieta:) arlos, ten cuidado! te quiero, carlos, te quiero.
(suddenly the film grinds to a halt. the people in the cinema
Begin to protest but are silenced by an announcement.)
(the voice of the secretary of the press:)
It is my sad duty to inform you that eva peron, spiritual leader
Of the nation, entered immortality at 8:25 this evening.
2.A New Argentina
(peron:)
Dice are rolling, the knives are out
Would-be presidents are all around
I don't say they mean harm
But they'd each give an arm
To see us six feet underground
(eva:)
It doesn't matter what those morons say
Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew
There's only twenty of them anyway
What is twenty next to millions who
Are looking to you?
All you have to do is sit and wait
Keeping out of everybody's way
We'll ... you'll be handed power on a plate
When the ones who matter have their say
And with chaos installed
You can reluctantly agree to be called
(peron:)
There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead
For distance lends enchantment, and that is why
All exiles are distinguished, more important, they're not dead
I could find job satisfaction in paraguay
(eva:)
This is crazy defeatist talk
Why commit political suicide, there's no risk
There's no call for any action at all
When you have unions on your side
(workers:)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be denied
(eva:)
There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime
He lives for your problems, he shares your ideals and your dream
He supports you, for he loves you
Understands you, is one of you
If not, how could he love me?
(workers:)
A new argentina, the workers' battle song
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Rings out loud and long
(eva:)
Now i am a worker, i've suffered the way that you do
I've been unemployed, and i've starved and i've hated it too
But i found my salvation in peron, may the nation
Let him save them as he saved me
(all:)
A new argentina, a new age about to begin
A new argentina, we face the world together
And no dissent within
(peron:)
There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead
I can see us many miles away, inactive
Sipping cocktails on a terrace, taking breakfast in bed
Sleeping easy, doing nothing, it's attractive
(eva:)
Don't think i don't think like you
I often get those nightmares too
They always take some swallowing
Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum
If it's you that you are following
Don't close doors, keep an escape clause
Because we might lose the big apple
But would i have done what i did
If i hadn't thought, if i hadn't known
We would take the country
(eva:)
Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow
The descamisados are those he is marching with now
He supports you, for he loves you
Understands you, is one of you
If not, how could he love me?
(all:)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be, and must not be denied
(che:)
How annoying that they have to fight elections for their cause
The inconvenience, having to get a majority
If normal methods of persuasion fail to win them applause
There are other ways of establishing authority
(all:)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be, and will not be, and must not be denied.
3.And The Money Kept Rolling In(And Out)
(che:)
And the money kept rolling in from every side
Eva's pretty hands reached out and they reached wide
Now you may feel it should have been a voluntary cause
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling in, you don't ask how
Think of all the people guaranteed a good time now
Eva's called the hungry to her, open up the doors
Never been a fund like the foundation eva peron
Chorus:
(workers:)
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' on in, rollin' on in
Rollin' on in, rollin' on in
On in
(che:)
Would you like to try a college education?
Own your landlord's house, take the family on vacation?
Eva and her blessed fund can make your dreams come true
Here's all you have to do my friends
Write your name and your dream on a card or a pad or a ticket
Throw it high in the air and should our lady pick it
She will change your way of life for a week or even two
Name me anyone who cares as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
(che:)
And the money kept rolling out in all directions
To the poor, to the weak, to the destitute of all complexions
Now cynics claim a little of the cash has gone astray
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
(che:)
Eva!!!
When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
4.Another Suitcase In Another Hall
(eva:)
I don't expect my love affairs to last for long
Never fool myself that my dreams will come true
Being used to trouble i anticipate it
But all the same i hate it, wouldn't you?
Chorus:
(eva:) so what happens now?
(che:) another suitcase in another hall
(eva:) so what happens now?
(che:) take your picture off another wall
(eva:) where am i going to?
(che:) you'll get by, you always have before
(eva:) where am i going to?
Time and time again i've said that i don't care
That i'm immune to gloom, that i'm hard through and through
But every time it matters all my words desert me
So anyone can hurt me, and they do
(chorus)
Call in three months time and i'll be fine, i know
Well maybe not that fine, but i'll survive anyhow
I won't recall the names and places of each sad occasion
But that's no consolation here and now.
(chorus, with che's lines being sung by the starlets)
(huevo:)
Don't ask anymore.
5.Be Careful With My Heart
(ricky martin:)
Be careful with my heart
You could break it
Don't take my love for granted
Things could change
Sometimes i go insane
I play the fool and you'll agree
I'll never be the same
Without you here with me
Chorus:
Con mi corazon
Me siento
Algo desnuda
Es mi corazon
Mi corazon
(madonna:)
Be careful with my heart
You could break it
Don't take my love for granted
Things could change
Sometimes i go insane
I play the fool and you'll agree
I'll never be the same
Without you here with me
Chorus2:
Con mi corazon
Cari
No me lastimes
Es mi corazon
Mi corazon
(madonna:) if i could reach out to you
(ricky martin:) nothing will stop me
(madonna:) take your head in my hands
(ricky martin:) tell me what would you do
(madonna:) kiss your eyes, sing you to sleep
(ricky martin:) your voice sounds like a lullaby
(madonna:) is my heart this time to keep?
(ricky martin:) is my heart to keep?
(chorus2)
(chorus)
(chorus2)
(chorus)
6.Beautiful Stranger
Haven't we met
You're some kind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me
I've had the taste for danger
If i'm smart then i'll run away
But i'm not so i guess i'll stay
Heaven forbid
I'll take my chance on a beautiful stranger
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why i'm singing this song
Bridge:
To know you is to love you
You're everywhere i go
And everybody knows
To love you is to be part of you
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
Chorus:
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
If i'm smart then i'll run away
But i'm not so i guess i'll stay
Haven't you heard
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger
I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change my point of view
If i could just forget about you
(bridge)
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why i'm singing this song to you
(bridge)
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
(chorus)
7.Buenos Aires

What's new buenos aires?
I'm new, i wanna say i'm just a little stuck on you
You'll be on me too

Stand back, you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me

You're a tramp, you're a treat
You will shine to the death, you are shoddy
But you're flesh, you are meat
You shall have every breath in my body
Put me down for a lifetime of success
Give me credit, i'll find ways of paying
Rio de la plata
Florida, corrientes, nueve de julio
All i want to know
Stand back, buenos aires
Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of

Can't stop

Can't stop thinking about you babe, can't stop
Can't stop screaming and shouting your name, can't stop
Look out boy 'cause i'm going to the top
Of your list, can't stop

My friends say i am blind i'll never break through
But i don't give in so easily

Come steal your heart away in the night
But i can't take away what's not mine
You'll see, you'll come to me in time, can't stop

I've never gone the distance before
To find if love was worth giving more
I was born to love you i've got nothing to hide

Chorus:
I've got the moves baby, you got the motion
If we got together we'd be causing a commotion
I've got the moves baby, you got the motion
If we got together we'd be causing a commotion
You met your match when you met me
I know that you will disagree it's crazy
But opposites attract you'll see
And i won't let you get away so easy
The love you save may be your own
Can't fight this feeling, aren't you tired of being alone
You won't admit it but you know it's true
It's not a secret how i feel when i stand next to you
(chorus)
Someday you'll see my point of view
You can't keep wishing on the stars baby
What works for me can work for you

It's how you play the game so get into the groove

It's how you play the game so get into the groove

Causing a commotion, causing a commotion
Causing a commotion, causing a commotion

10.Don't Cry For Me Argentina(Miami Spanglish Mix)
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When i try to explain how i feel
That i still your love after all that i've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen, i had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So i chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Chorus:
No llores por mi argentina
Mi alma esta contigo
Mi vida entera, te la dedico
Mas no te alejes
Te necesito
Don't cry for me argentina
My soul is with you
My whole life, i dedicate to you
Don't keep your distance
I need you
And as for fortune, and as for fame
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 promise to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
(chorus)
Chorus2:
No llores por mi argentina
Jamas yo te he abandonado
Aunque en silencio, mi alma te grita
Hoy y por siempre
Soy argentina

Now and forever
I am argentina )

I never expected it to

All through my wild days
My mad existence
I kept my promise

13.Eva And Magaldi/eva Beware Of The City
(eva:)
To think that a man as famous as you are
Could love a poor little nothing like me
Chorus:
(eva:)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(eva's family:)
She wants to be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(che:)
Just listen to that, they're on to you magaldi
I'd get out while you can
(eva:)
It's happened at last, i'm starting to get started
I'm moving out with my man
(magaldi:)
Now eva don't get carried away
(eva:)
Monotony past, suburbia departed
Who could ever be fond of the back of beyond?
(magaldi:)
Don't hear words that i didn't say
(eva's family:)
What's that? you'd desert the girl you love?
(magaldi:)
The girl i love?
What are you talking about?
(eva's family:)
She really brightened up your out-of-town engagement
She gave you all she had, she wasn't in your contract
You must be quite relieved that noone's told the papers, so far
(eva:)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
Would i have done what i did
If i hadn't thought, if i hadn't known
We would stay together
(eva's brother:)
Seems to me there's no point in resisting
She's made up her mind, you've no choice
Why don't you be the man who discovered her
You'll never be remembered for your voice
(magaldi:)
The city can be paradise for those who have the cash
The class and the connections, what you need to make a splash
The likes of you get swept up in the morning with the trash
If you were rich or middle class ...
(eva:)
Screw the middle classes! i will never accept them!
My father's other family were middle class
And we were kept out of sight, hidden from view at his funeral.
(eva's brother:)
Do all your one night stands give you this trouble?
(magaldi:)
Eva beware of the city
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, it is mad
Those who are fools are swallowed up whole
And those who are not become what they should not become
Changed, in short, they go bad.
(eva:)
Bad is good for me
I'm bored, so clean, and so ignored
I've only been predictable, respectable
Birds fly out of here, so why oh why oh why the hell can't i?
I only want variety, of society
(chorus)
(magaldi:)
Five years from now i shall come back
And finally say, 'you have your way, come to town.'
But you'll look at me with a foreigner's eyes
The magical city, a younger girl's city
A fantasy long since put down
(eva:)
All you've done to me, was that a young girl's fantasy?
I played your city games alright, didn't i?
I already know what cooks, how the dirty city feels and looks
I tasted it last night, didn't i?
I'm gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(eva and family:)
She's gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(magaldi:)
Eva beware your ambition
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, will run wild
This in a man is danger enough, but you are a woman
Not even a woman, not very much more than a child
And whatever you say, i'll not steal you away
14.Eva's Final Broadcast
(eva:)
The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She's sad for her country, sad to be defeated
By her own weak body
(crowds:)
I want to tell the people of argentina
I've decided i should decline
All the honors and titles you've pressed me to take
For i'm contented
Let me simply go on as the woman who brings her people
To the heart of peron
Don't cry for me argentina
The truth is i shall not leave you
Though it may get harder for you to see me
I'm argentina, and always will be
Have i said too much?
There's nothing 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

Chorus:
I'm a gambler, and i will take you by surprise
Gambler, i'll aim this straight between your eyes
Gambler, yeah i know all the words to say
'cause i'm a gambler, i only play the game my way, yeah
Don't want to say this but i think that i should
I'm better off forgotten if you think that i'd be good
One day you see me the next day i'm gone
Don't fight me baby i don't want to hold on
I'm a gambler, a gambler

You understand what i'm talking about?
(chorus)

That's right baby
17.Get Over
Yeah
You get under my skin
When i'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do, i
I was thinking that you never tried to hurt me
Never wanted something from me, tried to warn me
But you didn't really want me but i want you
'cause you haunt me and i felt it from the start
You're going to break my heart
So i tried to play the part
And i knew i had to choose
I've got nothing left to lose
Might as well just tell the truth
Chorus:
You get under my skin
When i'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you
'cause you get under my skin
I can't get over you
I was hoping, i was dreaming that i'd wake up
Think about it and i found that i had made up
But my heartbeat tells me it's not true, i want you
Gotta have you, tell me why can't we just start
Bridge:
You want to break my heart
Now you're underneath my skin
And i feel like it's a sin
To let love walk away so fast
I'm not your first, won't be your last
(chorus)
Intermediate:
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to

Start

Get, get over
Get, get over
Get over
Get, get over
Get, get over

18.Goodbye To Innocence
I don't wanna say goodbye
There are some who believe that i owe them something
But they're wrong, i owe nothing to no one but myself
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there, i am to blame
Chorus:
Say goodbye to anonymity
To privacy, but most of all
To innocence (repeat 3 times)
My life is not a game that i play to entertain you
And if you can do it better, then you're welcome to my fame
I'm not gonna waste my time correcting myths and rumors
You believe what you wanna believe
(chorus)
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't need a reason to cry
Kinda makes me wanna
Kinda makes me hafta
Stop and think about it (repeat 3 times)
Do i want to?
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Listen up
It always comes down to this (repeat)
Some people have a snake at the base of their spine
That would suck out your life, that would take all your time
They're called feeders
They're not believers but you must not fear it
They're takers
You know you better stop, stop and think about it (repeat 3
times)
Your innocence (repeat 3 times)
I don't wanna say goodbye to innocence
I don't need a reason to cry, innocence
Hold on to your innocence
Hold on
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it (repeat
twice)
19.Goodnight And Thank You
(che:)
Goodnight and thank you huevo
She is in every magazine
Been photographed, seen, she is known
We don't like to rush, but your case has been packed
If she's missed anything, you could give her a ring
But she won't always answer the phone
(eva:)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
But we have pretended enough
It's best that we both stop fooling ourselves
(che:)
Which means ...
Chorus:
(che and eva:)
There is noone, noone 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
(che:)
Goodnight and thank you emilio
You've completed your task
What more can we ask of you now?
Please sign the book on the way out the door
And that will be all, if she needs you she'll call
But i don't think that's likely somehow
(eva:)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
But when we were hot, we were hot
I know you'll look back on the good times we've shared
Which means ...
(chorus, substituting 'blame her' for 'blame them', sung only by
che)
(eva:)
There is no soap, no soap like zaz
No detergent, lotion, or oil with such power in the shower
It's the mother and father of luxury lather
The talk of the bath, the great ointment
One little frolic with new zaz carbolic
You're scented, you'll be sent
(che:)
Goodnight and thank you senor jabon
We are grateful you found her a spot on the sound radio
We'll think of you every time she's on the air
We'd love you to stay but you'd be in the way
So do up your trousers and go
(eva:)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
The decline into silence and doubt
Our passion was just too intense to survive
(che:)
Which means ...
(lovers:)
This is a club i should never have joined
Someone has made us look fools
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules
(eva:)
Fame on the wireless as far as it goes
Is all very well but every girl knows
(che:)
She needs a man she can monopolize
With fingers in dozens of different pies
(lovers:)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
20.Guilty By Association
You've been sanctified
And i've been tried
Guilty by association
You've been canonized
And i've been fried
Guilty by association
All the little loonies
With a salient obsession
Come out from the boonies
With their sharpies and their guns
And we're loaded with questions
Guilty by association
Guilty by association
You've been idolized
And i've been tried
Guilty by association
You've been terrorized
And i've been fried
Guilty by association
All the little loonies
With a salient obsession
Come out from the boonies
With their sharpies and their guns
They're all loaded with questions
Loaded with questions
Loaded with questions
21.Has To Be
Breathe in, breathe out
I say a little prayer
How the gods above
Could be so unfair
Chorus:
I know there's someone out there
Waiting for me
There must be someone out there
There just has to be
Go on, go on
Don't sit there like a fool
You've graduated from
A different kind of school
(chorus, repeat)
I should be glad that i'm alive
It could have been much worse
I might have never loved at all
And never known what i am worth
How the gods above
Could be so unfair
(chorus, repeat)
22.Hello And Goodbye
(eva:)
Hello and goodbye, i just unemployed you
You can go back to school
You've had a good run, i'm sure he enjoyed you
Don't act sad or surprised, let's be friends, civilized
Come on little one, don't sit there like a dummy
The day you knew would arrive is here, you'll survive
So move, funny face
I like your conversation, you've a catchy turn of phrase
You're obviously going through some adolescent phase
(mistress:)
So what happens now?
So what happens now?
Where am i going to?
(peron:) you'll get by, you always have before
(mistress:) where am i going to?
(eva:) don't ask anymore
23.High Flying, Adored
(che:)
High flying, adored
So young, the instant queen
A rich beautiful thing, of all the talents
A cross between a fantasy of the bedroom and a saint
You were just a backstreet girl
Hustling and fighting, scratching and biting
High flying, adored
Did you believe in your wildest moments
All this would be yours
That you'd become the lady of them all?
Were there stars in your eyes
When you crawled in at night
From the bars, from the sidewalks
From the gutter theatrical
Don't look down, it's a long, long way to fall
High flying, adored
What happens now, where do you go from here?
For someone on top of the world
The view is not exactly clear
A shame you did it all at twenty-six
There are no mysteries now
Nothing can thrill you, noone fulfill you
High flying, adored
I hope you come to terms with boredom
So famous so easily, so soon
It's not the wisest thing to be
You won't care if they love you
It's been done before
You'll despair if they hate you
You'll be drained of all energy
All the young who've made it would agree
(eva:)
High flying, adored
That's good to hear but unimportant
My story's quite usual
Local girl makes good, weds famous man
I was stuck in the right place at the perfect time
Filled a gap, i was lucky
But one thing i'll say for me
Noone else can fill it like i can
24.Charity Concert/the Art Of The Possible
(magaldi:)
On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays forever more
(eva:) magaldi
(magaldi:) eva duarte
(eva:) your act hasn't changed much
(magaldi:) neither has yours
(peron:)
I stand here as a servant of the people
As we come together for a marvelous cause
You've shown by your presence, your deeds and applause
What the people can do, true power is yours
Not the government's, unless it represents the people
(che:)
One always picks the easy fight
One praises fools, one smothers light
One shifts from left to right
Politics, the art of the possible
25.I'd Be Surprisingly Good For You
(eva:) colonel peron
(peron:) eva duarte
(eva and peron:)
I've heard so much about you
(eva and peron:)
(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
26.If You Forget Me
I want you to know one thing
You know how this is
If i look at the crystal moon
At the red branch of the slow autumn at my window
If i touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body
of the log
Everything carries me to you
As if everything that exists - aromas, light, metals
Were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that
wait for me
Well, now
If little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you
Little by little
If suddenly you forget me
Do not look for me
For i shall already have forgotten you
If you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes
through my life
And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where i
have roots
Remember
That on that day, at that hour, i shall lift my arms
And my roots will set off to seek another land
But, if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for
me
With implacable sweetness
If each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me
Ahh my love, ahh my own, in me all that fire is repeated
In me nothing is extinguished or forgotten
My love feeds on your love, beloved
And as long as you live, it will be in your arms without leaving
mine
27.Just A Dream
Chorus:
Was it just a dream?
Did i feel your devotion?
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions?
I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me
That i was part of your life
I say my prayers to the sandman
That he'll find me fast asleep
Sleep has always been kind
And in my dreams you'll always be mine
But in the morning when i wake
I remember that my heart does ache
(chorus, repeat)
I admit that i did my bit to deceive you
But sometimes i was afraid
That this day would come
How could you just leave me all alone now
I have always been strong
So i know that i can go on
But right now i feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where i hide
(chorus, repeat)
All that i have, all i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
And i want him, and i need him
I can't live and i'd die just to see him
Just to feel his hands on my face
Smell his skin, and his warm embrace
Cause it's all that i have
And it's fading so fast
Mmmm, mmmm
Uh, uh huh
Now i have always been strong
So i know that i can go on
But right now i feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where i hide
(chorus, repeat)
All that i have, all that i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
And i want him, and i need him
I can't live and i'd die just to see him
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
All that i have, all that i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
(repeat and fade)
28.Justify My Love(The Beast Within Mix)
(from revelation 1:3)
Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy
And blessed are those who hear
And who keep what is written therein
For the time is near
(from revelation 1:7)
He is coming with the clouds
And every eye will see him
Everyone who pierced him
And all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
(from revelation 2:1-4)
Those of you who have not learned what some call the deep things
of satan
I know your works, i know your toil, and your patient endurance
And how you cannot hear evil men
But have tested those who call themselves apostles, but are not
And found them to be false
I know that you are enduring patiently and bearing out for my
namesake
And you have not grown weary
But i have this against you
That you have abandoned the love you had
(from revelation 2:9-10)
I know your tribulation and your poverty
And the slander of those who say that they are jews, but they
are not
They are a synagogue of satan
Do not fear what you are about to suffer
Behold the devil is about to throw you into prison
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping, praying for you to justify my love
(from revelation 13:1-10)
And i saw a beast rising out of the sea with ten horns and seven
heads
And a blasphemous name upon its head
And the beast that i saw was like a leopard
Its feet were like a bear's
And its mouth was like a lion's mouth
And to it the dragon gave his power, and his throne, and great
authority
One of his heads had a mortal wound
But it seemed to have a mortal wound that was healed
And the whole earth followed the beast with wonder
Men worshipped the dragon for he had given his authority to the
beast
And they worshipped the beast saying
'who is like the beast and who can fight against the beast?'
And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous
words
And it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months
It opened its mouth to utter blasphemous words against god
It was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer
And authority was given it over every tribe
And a people and tongue and nation
And all who dwell on earth could worship it in vain
If anyone has an ear let him hear
If anyone is to be taken captive, into captivity he will go
If anyone who slays with the sword, with the sword
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping
(from revelation 21:1-8)
Then, i saw a new heaven and a new earth
And i heard a great voice from the throne saying:
'behold the dwelling of god is with men
He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people
And god himself will be with them
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes
And death shall be no more
Neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore
For these things will have passed away
To the thirsty i will give water without price
From the fountain of the water of life
He who conquers shall have this heritage
And i will be his god and he shall be my son
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted
As for the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators, and all
liars
Their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and
brimstone.'
(from revelation 22:10-13)
And he said to me, he said to me:
'do not seal up the words of the prophecy, for the time is near
Let the evildoers still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy
And the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy
Behold, i am coming soon
I am the alpha and the omega
The first and the last
The beginning and the end.'
Amen
What are you gonna do?
29.Lament
(eva:)
The choice was mine, and mine completely
I could have any prize that i desired
I could burn with the splendor of the brightest fire
Or else, or else i could choose time
Remember i was very young then
And a year was forever and a day
So what use could fifty, sixty, seventy be?
I saw the lights, and i was on my way
And how i lived, how they shone
But how soon the lights were gone
(che:)
The choice was yours and noone else's
You can cry for a body in despair
Hang your head because she is no longer there
To shine, to dazzle, or betray
How she lived, how she shone
But how soon the lights were gone
(embalmers:)
Eyes, hair, face, image
All must be preserved
Still life displayed forever
No less than she deserved.
30.Latin Chant
(choir:)
Respice, quaesumus, domine
Famulam tuam evita
In infirmitate
Et animam refove, quam creasti
Ut castigationibus emendata
Se tua sentiat medicina salvatam
Per christum, dominuum
Qui vivit et regnat
Per omnia saecula saeculorum
Amen
(translation:
Look with favor, we beseech thee, oh lord
Upon thy handmaid evita
In her weakness
And refresh the soul which thou hast created
That being corrected by thy chastisement
She may find herself cured by thy healing
Through christ, our lord
Who lives and reigns
Forever and ever
Amen )
(che:)
She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the casa rosada crying, 'eva peron'
But that's all gone now
31.Let Down Your Guard(Rough Mix Edit)
Verse:
Won't you come inside, and lay down next to my fire
Can you feel my heartbeat, let me show you my desire
First you have to tell me please, uh huh
Gonna bring you to your knees, uh huh
Gonna make you scream for more
Come inside and lock the door
And let down, let down
Let down your guard
Chorus:
Ahh, ah oww, come inside
Ahh, ah oww, come inside
This is not a one-night stand
I care for you, please understand
Baby won't you come inside
I'll take you for a little ride
I wanna touch you there, uh huh
Run my fingers through your hair, uh huh
Gonna take you for a ride
But you have to come inside
And let down, let down
Let down your guard
(chorus)
Ahh, ah oww
Ahh, ah oww
(verse)
(chorus)
Ahh, ah oow, cause i wanna touch you there
Ahh, ah oww, run my fingers through your hair
Ahh, ah oww, gonna take you for a ride
But you have to come inside
And let down
Let down your guard
uh huh
Gonna make you scream for more
Come inside and lock the door
And let down
(chorus, repeat and fade)
32.Lo Que Siente La Mujer
Lo que siente la mujer
Deliciosa
Labio suave y rosa... baby
Piel de miel, dulce y silenciosa
Te parece confundida
Su pasion esta escondida
Nunca sabes lo que va decir
Cuando empieza a sonreir
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Seductora, pero nunca facil...baby
Misteriosamente dura y fragil
Lagrimas que no te enseña
Su dolor no deja huella
No la trates ya de impresionar
Solo dejate llevar
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender
Lo que siente la mujer
Te parece confundida
Su pasion esta escondida
Nunca sabes lo que va decir
Cuando empieza a sonreir
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender
La mujer...comprender...
Quieres ver
Quieres ver
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Y tratar de comprender
What the woman feels
Delicious, pink and soft lip, baby
Syrup skin, sweet and silence,
She seems to you as confused
Her passion is hidden.
You never know what she's going to say
When she starts to smile.
(chorus:)
Do you want to see what the woman feels?
Do you want to? and try to comprehend the woman.
Seducer, but she is never easy, baby.
Mysteriously hard and soft,
Tear that she never shows you
Her pain doesn't ever let a clue
Don't try to impress her
Just let yourself go with the flow.
(chorus:) 2 times.
She seems to you as confused
Her passion is hidden.
You never know what she's going to say
When she starts to smile.
(chorus:)
Do you want to see what the woman feels?
Do you want to? and try to comprehend...
...the womaaaan....compreheeeend.....
(chorus:)
Do you want to see?
Do you want to see?
Do you want to see? and try to comprehend...
33.Oh What A Circus
(che:)
Oh what a circus, oh what a show
Argentina has gone to town
Over the death of an actress called eva peron
We've all gone crazy
Mourning all day and mourning all night
Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right
Oh what an exit, that's how to go
When they're ringing your curtain down
Demand to be buried like eva peron
It's quite a sunset
And good for the country in a roundabout way
We've made the front page of all the world's papers today
But who is this santa evita?
Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow?
What kind of goddess has lived among us?
How will we ever get by without her?
She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the casa rosada crying, 'eva peron'
But that's all gone now
As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
We're all gonna see and how, she did nothing for years
(crowd:)
Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina
Ad te clamamus exules filii eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia
Hail, oh queen, mother of mercy
Our life, sweetness, and hope
Hail, hail, oh queen
To you we cry, exiled sons of eve
To you we sigh, mourning and weeping
Oh clement, oh loving one
(che:)
You let down your people evita
You were supposed to have been immortal
That's all they wanted, not much to ask for
But in the end you could not deliver
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through
And she's not coming back to you
Show business kept us all alive
Since seventeen october 1945
But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin
That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in
Instead of government we had a stage
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
Instead of help we were given a crowd
She didn't say much, but she said it loud
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through
She's not coming back to you
(crowd:)
Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina peron
Ad te clamamus exules filii eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia
(eva:)
Don't cry for me argentina
For i am ordinary, unimportant
And undeserving of such attention
Unless we all are, i think we all are
So share my glory, so share my coffin
So share my glory, so share my coffin
(che:)
It's our funeral too
34.On The Balcony Of The Casa Rosada 1
(peron has just won a sweeping victory in the 1946 presidential
Election. this is the first public appearance by peron and eva
Since that triumph.)
(announcer:)
People of argentina
Your newly elected president, juan peron
(crowd chanting:)
(peron:)
Argentinos, argentinos
We are all workers now
Fighting against our common enemies
Poverty, social injustice
Foreign domination of our industries
Reaching for our common goals
Our independence, our dignity, our pride
Let the world know that our great nation is awakening
And that its heart beats in the humble bodies
Of juan peron and his wife
The first lady of argentina, eva duarte de peron
(crowd chanting:)
35.On The Balcony Of The Casa Rosada 2
(eva:)
Just listen to that, the voice of argentina
We are adored, we are loved
(officer:)
Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants
(eva's sister:)
We shall see little man
(crowd:)
(eva:)
I am only a simple woman
Who lives to serve peron in his noble crusade
To rescue his people
I was once as you are now, and i promise you this
We will take the riches from the obligarchs
Only for you, for all of you
And one day, you too will inherit these treasures
Descamisados, mis companeros
When they fire those cannons, when the crowds sing of glory
It is not just for peron, but for all of us, for all of us
(aristocrats:)
Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower-class
Can be respected and admired
(aristocrat:)
But our privileged class is dead
Look who they are calling for now
36.On This Night Of A Thousand Stars
(che:)
Now eva peron had every disadvantage
You need if you're gonna succeed
No money, no cash
No father, no bright lights
There was nowhere she'd been
At the age of fifteen
As this tango singer found out
Agustin magaldi
Who has the distinction of being the first
Man to be of use to eva duarte
(magaldi:)
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore
In the glow of those twinkling lights
We shall love through eternity
On this night in a million nights
Fly away with me
I never dreamed that a kiss could be as sweet as this
But now i know that it can
I used to wander alone without a love of my own
I was a desperate man
But all my grief disappeared and all the sorrow i'd feared
Wasn't there anymore
On that magical day when you first came my way
Mi amor
On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore
37.Partido Feminista
(crowd:)
(eva:)
Peron is everything, he is the soul, the nerve
The hope and the reality of the argentine people
We all know that there is only one man in our movement
With his own source of light
We all feed from his light, and that is peron
(che:)
And now she wants to be vice-president
(officers:)
That was the over-the-top, unacceptable suggestion
We didn't approve but we couldn't prevent
The games of the wife of the president
But to give her pretensions encouragement
She's out of her depth, and out of the question
38.Peron's Latest Flame
(che:) at the watering holes of the well-to-do
I detect a resistance to
(aristocrats:) precisely
(che:) our heroine's style
(aristocrats:) we're glad you noticed
(che:) the shooting sticks of the upper-class
(aristocrats:) give her an inch
(che:) aren't supporting a single ass
That would rise for the girl
(aristocrats:) she'll take a mile
(aristocrats:)
Such a shame she wandered into our enclosure
How unfortunate this person has forced us to be blunt
No we wouldn't mind seeing her at harrod's
But behind the jewelry counter, not in front
(che:) could there be in our fighting corps
A lack of enthusiasm for
(army:) exactly
(che:) peron's latest flame
(army:) you said it brother
(che:)
Should you wish to cause great distress
In the tidiest officer's mess
Just mention her name
(army:)
That isn't funny
Peron is a fool, breaking every taboo
Installing a girl in the army h.q.
And she's an actress, the last straw
Her only good parts are between her thighs
She should stare at the ceiling, not reach for the skies
Or she could be his last whore
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
Bitch! dangerous jade
(aristocrats:)
We have allowed ourselves to slip
We have completely lost our grip
We have declined to an all-time low
Tarts have become the set to know
(eva:)
I am only a radio star with just one weekly show
But speaking as one of the people i want you to know
We are tired of the decline of argentina
With no sign of a government able to give us the things we
deserve
(army:)
It's no crime for officers to do as they please
As long as they're discreet and keep clear of disease
We ignore, we disregard
But once they allow a bit on the side
To move to the center where she's not qualified
We are forced to mark his card
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
Slut! dangerous jade
(che:)
This has really been your year, miss duarte
Tell us where you go from here, miss duarte
Which are the roles that you yearn to play?
Whom did you sleep ... dine with yesterday?
(eva:)
Acting is limiting, the line's not mine
That's no help to the argentine
(che:)
Can we assume then that you'll quit?
Is this because of your involvement with colonel peron?
(heavies:)
Goodnight and thank you
(army:)
She won't be kept happy by her nights on the tiles
She says it's his body, but she's after his files
So get back on to the street
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
(aristocrats:)
Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower-class
Graceless and vulgar, uninspired
Can be accepted and admired
39.Rainbow High
(eva:)
There again i've more to do
Than simply get the message through
I haven't started
Let's get this show on the road
Let's make it obvious
Peron is off and rolling
Chorus:
(eva's dressers:)
Eyes, hair, mouth, figure
Dress, voice, style, movement
Hands, magic, rings, glamour
Face, diamonds, excitement, image
(eva:)
I came from the people, they need to adore me
So christian dior me from my head to my toes
I need to be dazzling, i want to be rainbow high
They must have excitement, and so must i
(eva's dressers:)
Eyes, hair, mouth, figure
Dress, voice, style, image
(eva:)
I'm their product, it's vital you sell me
So machiavell me, make an argentine rose
I need to be thrilling, i want to be rainbow high
They need their escape, and so do i
(chorus)
(eva:)
All my descamisados expect me to outshine the enemy
I won't disappoint them
I'm their savior, that's what they call me
So lauren bacall me, anything goes
To make me fantastic, i have to be rainbow high
In magical colors
You're not decorating a girl for a night on the town
And i'm not a second-rate queen getting kicks with a crown
Next stop will be europe
The rainbow's gonna tour, dressed up, somewhere to go
We'll put on a show
Look out, mighty europe
Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of
Just a little touch of
Argentina's brand of star quality
40.Rainbow Tour
(peron:)
People of europe, i send you the rainbow of argentina
(che:)
Spain has fallen to the charms of evita
She can do what she likes, it doesn't matter much
(aide #1:)
She's our lady of the new world with a golden touch
(aide #2:)
She filled a bull-ring, forty-five thousand seater
(che:)
But if you're prettier than general franco, that's not hard
(aide #1:)
Franco's reign in spain should see out the forties
So you've just acquired an ally who
Looks as secure in his job as you
(aide #2:)
But more important current political thought is
Your wife's a phenomenal asset, your trump card
Chorus:
(peron and aides:)
Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
(peron:) will evita win through?
(aides:) but the answer is yes
(peron:)
There you are, i told you so
Makes no difference where she goes
The whole world over just the same
Just listen to them call her name
And who would underestimate the actress now?
(che:)
Now i don't like to spoil a wonderful story
But the news from rome isn't quite as good
She hasn't gone down like they thought she would
Italy's unconvinced by argentine glory
They equate peron with mussolini, can't think why
(eva:)
Did you hear that? they called me a whore!
They actually called me a whore!
(italian admiral:)
But signora peron it's an easy mistake
I'm still called an admiral
Yet i gave up the sea long ago
(aide #2:)
More bad news from rome; she met with the pope
She only got a rosary, a kindly word
(che:)
I wouldn't say the holy father gave her the bird
But papal decorations, never a hope
(aide #1:)
She still looked the part at st. peter's, caught the eye
(chorus)
(peron:) will evita win through?
(aides:) but the answer is ...
(che:) a qualified
(aides:) yes
(che:)
Eva started well, no question, in france
Shining like a sun through the post-war haze
A beautiful reminder of the care-free days
She nearly captured the french, she sure had the chance
But she suddenly seemed to lose interest
She looked tired
(che:)
Face the facts, the rainbow's starting to fade
I don't think she'll make it to england now
(aide #1:)
It wasn't on the schedule anyhow
(che:)
You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
Some kind of coming home in triumph is required
(chorus)
(aide #2:) would evita win through?
(aide #1:) and the answer is
(aide #2:) yes
(che:) and no
(aides:) and yes
(che:) and no
(aides:) and yes
(che:) no
(chorus)
(aides:) would evita win through? but the answer is
(aide #2:) yes
(aide #1:) yes
(aide #2:) yes
41.Requiem For Evita
(crowd:)
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem evita, requiem evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
Grant eternal rest to evita
Grant eternal rest to evita
Rest to evita, rest to evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem evita, requiem evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
42.Santa Baby
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun i've missed
Think of all the fellas that i haven't kissed
Next year i could be oh so good
If you'd check off my christmas list
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, i wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing i really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, i'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'x' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my christmas tree
With some decorations bought at tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
43.Santa Evita
(children:)
Please, gentle eva, will you bless a little child?
For i love you, tell heaven i'm doing my best
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
Please, mother eva, will you look upon me as your own?
Make me special, be my angel
Be my everything wonderful perfect and true
And i'll try to be exactly like you
Please, holy eva, will you feed a hungry child?
For i love you, tell heaven i'm doing my best
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
Please, mother eva, will you feed a hungry child?
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
(workers:)
Santa santa evita
Madre de todos los ninos
De los tiranizados, de los descamisados
De los trabajadores, de la argentina
(repeat and fade)
44.She Is A Diamond
(peron:)
But on the other hand, she's all they have
She's a diamond in their dull gray lives
And that's the hardest kind of stone
It usually survives
And when you think about it, can you recall
The last time they loved anyone at all?
She's not a bauble you can brush aside
She's been out doing what we just talked about, example
Gave us back our businesses, got the english out
And when you think about it, well why not do
One or two of the things we promised to?
But on the other hand, she's slowing down
She's lost a little of that magic drive
But i would not advise those critics present to derive
Any satisfaction from her fading star
She's the one who's kept us where we are
(officers:)
She's the one who's kept you where you are
45.Sidewalk Talk(Extended Dance Mix)
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus:
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate:
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)
(chorus)
Sidewalk talk
(repeat 3 times)
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
(repeat)
Watch out for sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
46.Supernatural(Original Arms House Mix)
Made your acquaintance late one night
You were floating around, you know you gave me quite a fright
You didn't seem like an ordinary man
More like a ray of light
You transcendentally imposed yourself upon my bed
You know you didn't say very much
I'm out of body and i feel so good in my head
You know i'm really quite touched
I wake up with your fragrance and it's all over me
What cologne do you wear?
I walk around with a smile on my face, 'cause you're close to me
Well i know you're somewhere
Chorus:
Gonna take my chance on a different kind of romance
A supernatural thing
Gonna have my fill, it gives me such a big thrill to be with
A supernatural thing
I stay uplifted for quite some time
(or: you say you've lived here for quite some time)
And i'd say that your skills as a lover are very refined
You know just what i want and i don't have to ask
Are you reading my mind?
You're not demanding for a man, that's really quite rare
You're not the least bit obsessed with your hair
You're not upset when i come home later than ten
For a ghost you're a very good friend
Bridge:
I've got to be a very careful, never know what the neighbors
would say
They already think i'm crazy
I wouldn't like to wake up and find myself in the family way
A ghost baby?
(chorus, repeat)
I know you're out there you little rascal
Stop that
(bridge)
(chorus, repeat)
Gonna take my pants off for a different kind of romance
That super-duper naturally big thing
It's outrageously large
(fade)
47.The Actress Hasn't Learned The Lines(You'd Like To Hear)
(aristocrats:)
Thus all fairy stories end
Only an actress would pretend
Affairs of state are her latest play
Eight shows a week, two matinees
My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn?
My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn?
(eva:)
The chorus girl hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't go scrambling over the backs of the poor to be
accepted
By making donations just large enough to the correct charity
She won't be president of your wonderful societies of
philanthropy
Even if you asked her to be
As you should have asked her to be
The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't join your clubs, she won't dance in your halls
She won't help the hungry once a month at your tombolas
She'll simply take control as you disappear
(che:)
Forgive my intrusion, but fine as those sentiments sound
Little has changed for us peasants down here on the ground
I hate to sound childish, ungrateful, i don't like to moan
But do you now represent anyone's cause but your own?
(eva:)
Everything done will be justified by my foundation
48.The Lady's Got Potential
(che:)
In june of forty-three there was a military coup
Behind it was a gang called the g.o.u.
Who did not feel the need to be elected
They had themselves a party at the point of a gun
They were slightly to the right of atilla the hun
A bomb or two and very few objected
Yeah, just one shell and governments fall like flies, kapow, die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Backs to the wall, aim high
We're having a ball
The tank and bullet rule as democracy dies
The lady's got potential, she was setting her sights
On making it in movies with her name in lights
The greatest social climber since cinderella
Ok, she couldn't act but she had the right friends
And we all know a career depends
On knowing the right fella to be stellar
Yeah, just one shell and governments lose their nerve, kapow,
die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Backs to the wall, aim high
We're having a ball
That's how we get the government we deserve
Now the man behind the president calling the shots
Involved so discreetly in a lot of their plots
Was colonel juan peron, would be dictator
He began in the army out in italy so
Saw mussolini's rise from the very front row
I reckon he'd do likewise sooner or later
Yeah, just one blast and the tear gas falls like rain, kapow,
die
They haven't a chance, bye bye
The terrorists advance
But one guy doesn't dirty his hands
Peron was biding time out in the slow lane
Yeah, suddenly an earthquake hit the town of san juan, kapow,
die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Keep away from the wall
But one guy was having a ball
The tragedy, a golden chance for peron
He organized a concert with incredible flair
In aid of all the victims, such a grand affair
Politicians, actors, stars of every flavor
It was january twenty-second, 1944
A night to remember, yeah, that's for sure
For that's the night that peron first met eva
For that's the night that peron first met eva
49.The Look Of Love
Should have left you standing right where you stood
Should have let you go, should have had the sense to know
Like a train you'd come, and i'd lose my place
Now i'm on this trip, i took a fall from grace
Chorus:
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
From the look of love, from the eyes of pride
Nowhere to go, no place to run
From the look of love, now i've come undone
I've had a map laid out from the day i was born
But the roads are blocked, and the paper is worn
And all the books i've read, and the things i know
Never taught me to laugh, never taught to let go
(chorus)
My conscience is clear i know right from wrong
That's a lie i know nothing except that you're gone
But there's more to learn from the look in your eyes
That trip round this world, the stars in the sky
Now all the books i've read, and the things i know
Never taught me to live, never taught me to let go
(chorus)
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
From the look of love, lord knows i've tried
Nowhere to go, no place to run
From the look of love, now i've come undone
50.Veras(You'll See)
Tu piensas que yo no podre vivir sin ti
Tu piensas no podra sobrevivir
Que nada me queda, si no estas junto a mi
Veras que no es asi
Tu piensas que jamas sere feliz sin ti
Que destruiste al fin mi corazon
Que no voy a descubrir la forma de volver atras
Sin ti, yo se que si
Estribillo:
Ya lo veras
No necesito a nadie mas
Podre resistir
Voy a poder seguir
Lo hare por mi
Sera mi gloria personal
Nadie, ni tu, me la podra quitar
Veras
Acepta la verdad, no llorare por ti
Yo se que asi sera, podre salir
Voy a saltar sin red, y no voy a caer
Sera mejor sin ti
(estribillo)
Veras
(translation:
You think i won't be able to live without you
You think: she won't be able to survive
That i have nothing left if you're not by my side
You'll see, it's not like that
You think i'll never be happy without you
That finally you destroyed my heart
That i won't find my way back
Without you, i know i will
Chorus:
You will see
I don't need anyone else
I will resist
I'll manage to go on
I'll do it for myself
It will be my personal glory
No one, not even you, can take it from me
You'll see
Accept the truth, i will not cry for you
I know it'll be so, i will pull through
I'll jump without a net, and i'm not going to fall
It will be better without you
(chorus)
You'll see )
51.Waltz For Eva And Che
(che:)
Tell me before i waltz out of your life
Before turning my back on the past
Forgive my impertinent behavior
But how long do you think this pantomime can last?
Tell me before i ride off in the sunset
There's one thing i never got clear
How can you claim you're our savior
When those who oppose you are stepped on,
Or cut up, or simply disappear?
(eva:)
Tell me before you get onto your bus
Before joining the forgotten brigade
How can one person like me, say,
Alter the time-honored way the game is played?
Tell me before you get onto your high horse
Just what you expect me to do
I don't care what the bourgeoisie say
I'm not in business for them
But to give all my descamisados
A magical moment or two
(che and eva:)
There is evil, ever around
Fundamental system of government
Quite incidental
(eva:)
So what are my chances of honest advances?
I'd say low
Better to win by admitting my sin
Than to lose with a halo
(che:)
Tell me before i seek worthier pastures
And thereby restore self-esteem
How can you be so short-sighted
To look never further than this week or next week
To have no impossible dream?
(eva:)
Allow me to help you slink off to the sidelines
And mark your adieu with three cheers
But first tell me who'd be delighted
If i said i'd take on the world's greatest problems
From war to pollution, no hope of solution
Even if i lived for one hundred years
(che and eva:)
There is evil, ever around
Fundamental system of government
Quite incidental
(eva:)
So go, if you're able, to somewhere unstable
And stay there
Whip up your hate in some tottering state
But not here, dear
Is that clear, dear?
Oh what i'd give for a hundred years
But the physical interferes
Every day more, o my creator
What is the good of the strongest heart
In a body that's falling apart?
A serious flaw, i hope you know that
52.Who's That Girl
Who's that girl, who's that girl
When you see her, say a prayer and kiss your heart goodbye
She's trouble, in a word get closer to the fire
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
You're spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
Chorus:
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
You try to avoid her, fate is in your hands
She's smiling, an invitation to the dance
Her heart is on the street, tu corazon es suyo
Now you're falling at her feet
You try to get away but you can't
(chorus)
Intermediate:
Light up my life, so blind i can't see
Light up my life, no one can help me now
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
He's spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
(chorus)
(intermediate)
Who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
(chorus)
53.You Must Love Me
Where do we go from here?
This isn't where we intended to be
We had it all, you believed in me
I believed in you
Certainties disappear
What do we do for our dream to survive?
How do we keep all our passions alive,
As we used to do?
Bridge:
Deep in my heart i'm concealing
Things that i'm longing to say
Scared to confess what i'm feeling
Frightened you'll slip away
Chorus:
You must love me
You must love me
Why are you at my side?
How can i be any use to you now?
Give me a chance and i'll let you see how
Nothing has changed
(bridge)
(chorus)
You must love me
54.Your Little Body's Slowly Breaking Down
(peron:)
Your little body's slowly breaking down
You're losing speed, you're losing strength, not style
That goes on flourishing forever
But your eyes, your smile
Do not have the sparkle of your fantastic past
If you climb one more mountain it could be your last
(eva:)
I'm not that ill, bad moments come but they go
Some days are fine, some a little bit harder
But that doesn't mean we should give up our dream
Have you ever seen me defeated?
Don't you forget what i've been through and yet
I'm still standing
(peron:)
Eva, you are dying
(eva:)
So what happens now?
Where am i going to?
(peron:)
Don't ask anymore
1.A Cinema In Buenos Aires, 26 July 1952
(an audience is watching a less than distinguished movie.
[in both the original london and new york productions of
Evita, a clip from one of eva peron's own movies was used].
The soundtrack dialogue is in spanish, the music melodramatic.)
(julieta：) carlos.
(carlos：) julieta, mi querida julieta.
(julieta：) carlos, no tendrs que haber venido.
(carlos：) julieta, ni un millar de soldados me puede detener.
(julieta：) pero es peligroso, mi padre te arrestar？
(carlos：) ten que venir.
(julieta：) arlos!
(carlos：) hasta este momento, mis labios no han osado murmurar
La palabra amor.
(julieta：) carlos.
(carlos：) y mucho m que eso, mi ser todo vibra de deseo.
u？fue eso？ algo se movi？en el balc de tu
Padre. si fuera ese truh de rodolfo, juro que mi espada no
Permanecer？en su vaina.
(julieta：) arlos, ten cuidado! te quiero, carlos, te quiero.
(suddenly the film grinds to a halt. the people in the cinema
Begin to protest but are silenced by an announcement.)
(the voice of the secretary of the press：)
It is my sad duty to inform you that eva peron, spiritual leader
Of the nation, entered immortality at 8：25 this evening.
2.A New Argentina
(peron：)
Dice are rolling, the knives are out
Would-be presidents are all around
I don't say they mean harm
But they'd each give an arm
To see us six feet underground
(eva：)
It doesn't matter what those morons say
Our nation's leaders are a feeble crew
There's only twenty of them anyway
What is twenty next to millions who
Are looking to you？
All you have to do is sit and wait
Keeping out of everybody's way
We'll ... you'll be handed power on a plate
When the ones who matter have their say
And with chaos installed
You can reluctantly agree to be called
(peron：)
There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead
For distance lends enchantment, and that is why
All exiles are distinguished, more important, they're not dead
I could find job satisfaction in paraguay
(eva：)
This is crazy defeatist talk
Why commit political suicide, there's no risk
There's no call for any action at all
When you have unions on your side
(workers：)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be denied
(eva：)
There is only one man who can lead any workers' regime
He lives for your problems, he shares your ideals and your dream
He supports you, for he loves you
Understands you, is one of you
If not, how could he love me？
(workers：)
A new argentina, the workers' battle song
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Rings out loud and long
(eva：)
Now i am a worker, i've suffered the way that you do
I've been unemployed, and i've starved and i've hated it too
But i found my salvation in peron, may the nation
Let him save them as he saved me
(all：)
A new argentina, a new age about to begin
A new argentina, we face the world together
And no dissent within
(peron：)
There again we could be foolish not to quit while we're ahead
I can see us many miles away, inactive
Sipping cocktails on a terrace, taking breakfast in bed
Sleeping easy, doing nothing, it's attractive
(eva：)
Don't think i don't think like you
I often get those nightmares too
They always take some swallowing
Sometimes it's very difficult to keep momentum
If it's you that you are following
Don't close doors, keep an escape clause
Because we might lose the big apple
But would i have done what i did
If i hadn't thought, if i hadn't known
We would take the country
(eva：)
Peron has resigned from the army and this we avow
The descamisados are those he is marching with now
He supports you, for he loves you
Understands you, is one of you
If not, how could he love me？
(all：)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be, and must not be denied
(che：)
How annoying that they have to fight elections for their cause
The inconvenience, having to get a majority
If normal methods of persuasion fail to win them applause
There are other ways of establishing authority
(all：)
A new argentina, the chains of the masses untied
A new argentina, the voice of the people
Cannot be, and will not be, and must not be denied.
3.And The Money Kept Rolling In(And Out)
(che：)
And the money kept rolling in from every side
Eva's pretty hands reached out and they reached wide
Now you may feel it should have been a voluntary cause
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling in, you don't ask how
Think of all the people guaranteed a good time now
Eva's called the hungry to her, open up the doors
Never been a fund like the foundation eva peron
Chorus：
(workers：)
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' rollin' rollin', rollin' rollin' rollin'
Rollin' on in, rollin' on in
Rollin' on in, rollin' on in
On in
(che：)
Would you like to try a college education？
Own your landlord's house, take the family on vacation？
Eva and her blessed fund can make your dreams come true
Here's all you have to do my friends
Write your name and your dream on a card or a pad or a ticket
Throw it high in the air and should our lady pick it
She will change your way of life for a week or even two
Name me anyone who cares as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
(che：)
And the money kept rolling out in all directions
To the poor, to the weak, to the destitute of all complexions
Now cynics claim a little of the cash has gone astray
But that's not the point my friends
When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
(che：)
Eva!!!
When the money keeps rolling out you don't keep books
You can tell you've done well by the happy grateful looks
Accountants only slow things down, figures get in the way
Never been a lady loved as much as eva peron
(chorus)
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
Rollin' on out, rollin' on out
On out
4.Another Suitcase In Another Hall
(eva：)
I don't expect my love affairs to last for long
Never fool myself that my dreams will come true
Being used to trouble i anticipate it
But all the same i hate it, wouldn't you？
Chorus：
(eva：) so what happens now？
(che：) another suitcase in another hall
(eva：) so what happens now？
(che：) take your picture off another wall
(eva：) where am i going to？
(che：) you'll get by, you always have before
(eva：) where am i going to？
Time and time again i've said that i don't care
That i'm immune to gloom, that i'm hard through and through
But every time it matters all my words desert me
So anyone can hurt me, and they do
(chorus)
Call in three months time and i'll be fine, i know
Well maybe not that fine, but i'll survive anyhow
I won't recall the names and places of each sad occasion
But that's no consolation here and now.

6.Beautiful Stranger
Haven't we met
You're some kind of beautiful stranger
You could be good for me
I've had the taste for danger
If i'm smart then i'll run away
But i'm not so i guess i'll stay
Heaven forbid
I'll take my chance on a beautiful stranger
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why i'm singing this song
Bridge：
To know you is to love you
You're everywhere i go
And everybody knows
To love you is to be part of you
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
Chorus：
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
Da-da-da-dum da-dum da-dum da da da-da dum
Beautiful stranger
If i'm smart then i'll run away
But i'm not so i guess i'll stay
Haven't you heard
I fell in love with a beautiful stranger
I looked into your face
My heart was dancing all over the place
I'd like to change my point of view
If i could just forget about you
(bridge)
I looked into your eyes
And my world came tumbling down
You're the devil in disguise
That's why i'm singing this song to you
(bridge)
I've paid for you with tears
And swallowed all my pride
(chorus)

It's because of the things you are
Beautiful town, i love you

You're a tramp, you're a treat
You will shine to the death, you are shoddy
But you're flesh, you are meat
You shall have every breath in my body
Put me down for a lifetime of success

Rio de la plata
Florida, corrientes, nueve de julio

Can't stop screaming and shouting your name, can't stop
Look out boy 'cause i'm going to the top

Chorus：
I've got the moves baby, you got the motion
If we got together we'd be causing a commotion
I've got the moves baby, you got the motion
If we got together we'd be causing a commotion
You met your match when you met me
I know that you will disagree it's crazy
But opposites attract you'll see
And i won't let you get away so easy
The love you save may be your own
Can't fight this feeling, aren't you tired of being alone
You won't admit it but you know it's true
It's not a secret how i feel when i stand next to you
(chorus)
Someday you'll see my point of view
You can't keep wishing on the stars baby
What works for me can work for you

It's how you play the game so get into the groove

10.Don't Cry For Me Argentina(Miami Spanglish Mix)
It won't be easy, you'll think it strange
When i try to explain how i feel
That i still your love after all that i've done
You won't believe me
All you will see is a girl you once knew
Although she's dressed up to the nines
At sixes and sevens with you
I had to let it happen, i had to change
Couldn't stay all my life down at heel
Looking out of the window, staying out of the sun
So i chose freedom
Running around, trying everything new
But nothing impressed me at all
I never expected it to
Chorus：
No llores por mi argentina
Mi alma esta contigo
Mi vida entera, te la dedico
Mas no te alejes
Te necesito
Don't cry for me argentina
My soul is with you
My whole life, i dedicate to you
Don't keep your distance
I need you
And as for fortune, and as for fame
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 promise to be
The answer was here all the time
I love you and hope you love me
(chorus)

No llores por mi argentina
Jamas yo te he abandonado
Aunque en silencio, mi alma te grita
Hoy y por siempre
Soy argentina

My mad existence

13.Eva And Magaldi／eva Beware Of The City
(eva：)
To think that a man as famous as you are
Could love a poor little nothing like me
Chorus：
(eva：)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(eva's family：)
She wants to be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(che：)
Just listen to that, they're on to you magaldi
I'd get out while you can
(eva：)
It's happened at last, i'm starting to get started
I'm moving out with my man
(magaldi：)
Now eva don't get carried away
(eva：)
Monotony past, suburbia departed
Who could ever be fond of the back of beyond？
(magaldi：)
Don't hear words that i didn't say
(eva's family：)
What's that？ you'd desert the girl you love？
(magaldi：)
The girl i love？
What are you talking about？
(eva's family：)
She really brightened up your out-of-town engagement
She gave you all she had, she wasn't in your contract
You must be quite relieved that noone's told the papers, so far
(eva：)
I wanna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
Would i have done what i did
If i hadn't thought, if i hadn't known
We would stay together
(eva's brother：)
Seems to me there's no point in resisting
She's made up her mind, you've no choice
Why don't you be the man who discovered her
You'll never be remembered for your voice
(magaldi：)
The city can be paradise for those who have the cash
The class and the connections, what you need to make a splash
The likes of you get swept up in the morning with the trash
If you were rich or middle class ...
(eva：)
Screw the middle classes! i will never accept them!
My father's other family were middle class
And we were kept out of sight, hidden from view at his funeral.
(eva's brother：)
Do all your one night stands give you this trouble？
(magaldi：)
Eva beware of the city
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, it is mad
Those who are fools are swallowed up whole
And those who are not become what they should not become
Changed, in short, they go bad.
(eva：)
Bad is good for me
I'm bored, so clean, and so ignored
I've only been predictable, respectable
Birds fly out of here, so why oh why oh why the hell can't i？
I only want variety, of society
(chorus)
(magaldi：)
Five years from now i shall come back
And finally say, 'you have your way, come to town.'
But you'll look at me with a foreigner's eyes
The magical city, a younger girl's city
A fantasy long since put down
(eva：)
All you've done to me, was that a young girl's fantasy？
I played your city games alright, didn't i？
I already know what cooks, how the dirty city feels and looks
I tasted it last night, didn't i？
I'm gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(eva and family：)
She's gonna be a part of b.a.
Buenos aires, big apple
(magaldi：)
Eva beware your ambition
It's hungry and cold, can't be controlled, will run wild
This in a man is danger enough, but you are a woman
Not even a woman, not very much more than a child
And whatever you say, i'll not steal you away
14.Eva's Final Broadcast
(eva：)
The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She's sad for her country, sad to be defeated
By her own weak body
(crowds：)
I want to tell the people of argentina
I've decided i should decline
All the honors and titles you've pressed me to take
For i'm contented
Let me simply go on as the woman who brings her people
To the heart of peron
Don't cry for me argentina
The truth is i shall not leave you
Though it may get harder for you to see me
I'm argentina, and always will be

There's nothing 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

Say freedom, brotherhood

Gambler, gambler
Chorus：
I'm a gambler, and i will take you by surprise
Gambler, i'll aim this straight between your eyes
Gambler, yeah i know all the words to say
'cause i'm a gambler, i only play the game my way, yeah
Don't want to say this but i think that i should
I'm better off forgotten if you think that i'd be good
One day you see me the next day i'm gone
Don't fight me baby i don't want to hold on

That's right baby
17.Get Over
Yeah
You get under my skin
When i'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do, i
I was thinking that you never tried to hurt me
Never wanted something from me, tried to warn me
But you didn't really want me but i want you
'cause you haunt me and i felt it from the start
You're going to break my heart
So i tried to play the part
And i knew i had to choose
I've got nothing left to lose
Might as well just tell the truth
Chorus：
You get under my skin
When i'm next to you
You get over
Every little thing you do
I can't get with it
Can't put the blame on you
'cause you get under my skin
I can't get over you
I was hoping, i was dreaming that i'd wake up
Think about it and i found that i had made up
But my heartbeat tells me it's not true, i want you
Gotta have you, tell me why can't we just start
Bridge：
You want to break my heart
Now you're underneath my skin
And i feel like it's a sin
To let love walk away so fast
I'm not your first, won't be your last
(chorus)
Intermediate：
Get up, get over, get under
Oh baby you hit me like thunder
Get over, get under, get into
To love you is almost a sin to

Get, get over
Get, get over
Get over
Get, get over
Get, get over

18.Goodbye To Innocence
I don't wanna say goodbye
There are some who believe that i owe them something
But they're wrong, i owe nothing to no one but myself
And there are some who say they created me
But only my parents will have that acclaim
I took it from there, i am to blame
Chorus：
Say goodbye to anonymity
To privacy, but most of all
To innocence (repeat 3 times)
My life is not a game that i play to entertain you
And if you can do it better, then you're welcome to my fame
I'm not gonna waste my time correcting myths and rumors
You believe what you wanna believe
(chorus)
I don't wanna say goodbye
I don't need a reason to cry
Kinda makes me wanna
Kinda makes me hafta
Stop and think about it (repeat 3 times)
Do i want to？
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Up-up, d-d-down, up-up-up
Listen up
It always comes down to this (repeat)
Some people have a snake at the base of their spine
That would suck out your life, that would take all your time
They're called feeders
They're not believers but you must not fear it
They're takers
You know you better stop, stop and think about it (repeat 3
times)
Your innocence (repeat 3 times)
I don't wanna say goodbye to innocence
I don't need a reason to cry, innocence
Hold on to your innocence
Hold on
Stop and think about it, say goodbye, think about it (repeat
twice)
19.Goodnight And Thank You
(che：)
Goodnight and thank you huevo
She is in every magazine
Been photographed, seen, she is known
We don't like to rush, but your case has been packed
If she's missed anything, you could give her a ring
But she won't always answer the phone
(eva：)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
But we have pretended enough
It's best that we both stop fooling ourselves
(che：)
Which means ...
Chorus：
(che and eva：)
There is noone, noone 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
(che：)
Goodnight and thank you emilio
You've completed your task
What more can we ask of you now？
Please sign the book on the way out the door
And that will be all, if she needs you she'll call
But i don't think that's likely somehow
(eva：)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
But when we were hot, we were hot
I know you'll look back on the good times we've shared
Which means ...
(chorus, substituting 'blame her' for 'blame them', sung only by
che)
(eva：)
There is no soap, no soap like zaz
No detergent, lotion, or oil with such power in the shower
It's the mother and father of luxury lather
The talk of the bath, the great ointment
One little frolic with new zaz carbolic
You're scented, you'll be sent
(che：)
Goodnight and thank you senor jabon
We are grateful you found her a spot on the sound radio
We'll think of you every time she's on the air
We'd love you to stay but you'd be in the way
So do up your trousers and go
(eva：)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
The decline into silence and doubt
Our passion was just too intense to survive
(che：)
Which means ...
(lovers：)
This is a club i should never have joined
Someone has made us look fools
Argentine men call the sexual shots
Someone has altered the rules
(eva：)
Fame on the wireless as far as it goes
Is all very well but every girl knows
(che：)
She needs a man she can monopolize
With fingers in dozens of different pies
(lovers：)
Oh but it's sad when a love affair dies
20.Guilty By Association
You've been sanctified
And i've been tried
Guilty by association
You've been canonized
And i've been fried
Guilty by association
All the little loonies
With a salient obsession
Come out from the boonies
With their sharpies and their guns
And we're loaded with questions
Guilty by association
Guilty by association
You've been idolized
And i've been tried
Guilty by association
You've been terrorized
And i've been fried
Guilty by association
All the little loonies
With a salient obsession
Come out from the boonies
With their sharpies and their guns
They're all loaded with questions
Loaded with questions
Loaded with questions
21.Has To Be
Breathe in, breathe out
I say a little prayer
How the gods above
Could be so unfair
Chorus：
I know there's someone out there
Waiting for me
There must be someone out there
There just has to be
Go on, go on
Don't sit there like a fool
You've graduated from
A different kind of school
(chorus, repeat)
I should be glad that i'm alive
It could have been much worse
I might have never loved at all
And never known what i am worth
How the gods above
Could be so unfair
(chorus, repeat)
22.Hello And Goodbye
(eva：)
Hello and goodbye, i just unemployed you
You can go back to school
You've had a good run, i'm sure he enjoyed you
Don't act sad or surprised, let's be friends, civilized
Come on little one, don't sit there like a dummy
The day you knew would arrive is here, you'll survive
So move, funny face
I like your conversation, you've a catchy turn of phrase
You're obviously going through some adolescent phase
(mistress：)
So what happens now？
So what happens now？
Where am i going to？
(peron：) you'll get by, you always have before
(mistress：) where am i going to？
(eva：) don't ask anymore
23.High Flying, Adored
(che：)
High flying, adored
So young, the instant queen
A rich beautiful thing, of all the talents
A cross between a fantasy of the bedroom and a saint
You were just a backstreet girl
Hustling and fighting, scratching and biting
High flying, adored
Did you believe in your wildest moments
All this would be yours
That you'd become the lady of them all？
Were there stars in your eyes
When you crawled in at night
From the bars, from the sidewalks
From the gutter theatrical
Don't look down, it's a long, long way to fall
High flying, adored
What happens now, where do you go from here？
For someone on top of the world
The view is not exactly clear
A shame you did it all at twenty-six
There are no mysteries now
Nothing can thrill you, noone fulfill you
High flying, adored
I hope you come to terms with boredom
So famous so easily, so soon
It's not the wisest thing to be
You won't care if they love you
It's been done before
You'll despair if they hate you
You'll be drained of all energy
All the young who've made it would agree
(eva：)
High flying, adored
That's good to hear but unimportant
My story's quite usual
Local girl makes good, weds famous man
I was stuck in the right place at the perfect time
Filled a gap, i was lucky
But one thing i'll say for me
Noone else can fill it like i can
24.Charity Concert／the Art Of The Possible
(magaldi：)
On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays forever more
(eva：) magaldi
(magaldi：) eva duarte
(eva：) your act hasn't changed much
(magaldi：) neither has yours
(peron：)
I stand here as a servant of the people
As we come together for a marvelous cause
You've shown by your presence, your deeds and applause
What the people can do, true power is yours
Not the government's, unless it represents the people
(che：)
One always picks the easy fight
One praises fools, one smothers light
One shifts from left to right
Politics, the art of the possible
25.I'd Be Surprisingly Good For You
(eva：) colonel peron
(peron：) eva duarte
(eva and peron：)
I've heard so much about you
(eva and peron：)
(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
26.If You Forget Me
I want you to know one thing
You know how this is
If i look at the crystal moon
At the red branch of the slow autumn at my window
If i touch near the fire the impalpable ash or the wrinkled body
of the log
Everything carries me to you
As if everything that exists - aromas, light, metals
Were little boats that sail toward those isles of yours that
wait for me
Well, now
If little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you
Little by little
If suddenly you forget me
Do not look for me
For i shall already have forgotten you
If you think it long and mad the wind of banners that passes
through my life
And you decide to leave me at the shore of the heart where i
have roots
Remember
That on that day, at that hour, i shall lift my arms
And my roots will set off to seek another land
But, if each day, each hour, you feel that you are destined for
me
With implacable sweetness
If each day a flower climbs up to your lips to seek me
Ahh my love, ahh my own, in me all that fire is repeated
In me nothing is extinguished or forgotten
My love feeds on your love, beloved
And as long as you live, it will be in your arms without leaving
mine
27.Just A Dream
Chorus：
Was it just a dream？
Did i feel your devotion？
Dreams are never what they seem
Did we just go through the motions？
I keep your photograph by my bed to remind me
That i was part of your life
I say my prayers to the sandman
That he'll find me fast asleep
Sleep has always been kind
And in my dreams you'll always be mine
But in the morning when i wake
I remember that my heart does ache
(chorus, repeat)
I admit that i did my bit to deceive you
But sometimes i was afraid
That this day would come
How could you just leave me all alone now
I have always been strong
So i know that i can go on
But right now i feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where i hide
(chorus, repeat)
All that i have, all i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
And i want him, and i need him
I can't live and i'd die just to see him
Just to feel his hands on my face
Smell his skin, and his warm embrace
Cause it's all that i have
And it's fading so fast
Mmmm, mmmm
Uh, uh huh
Now i have always been strong
So i know that i can go on
But right now i feel so dead inside
Oh sleep come to me, cause that's where i hide
(chorus, repeat)
All that i have, all that i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
And i want him, and i need him
I can't live and i'd die just to see him
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
All that i have, all that i ask
All my dreams, they fade so fast
Don't wake me up, not today
All my dreams will fade away
(repeat and fade)
28.Justify My Love(The Beast Within Mix)
(from revelation 1：3)
Blessed is he who reads aloud the words of the prophecy
And blessed are those who hear
And who keep what is written therein
For the time is near
(from revelation 1：7)
He is coming with the clouds
And every eye will see him
Everyone who pierced him
And all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him
(from revelation 2：1-4)
Those of you who have not learned what some call the deep things
of satan
I know your works, i know your toil, and your patient endurance
And how you cannot hear evil men
But have tested those who call themselves apostles, but are not
And found them to be false
I know that you are enduring patiently and bearing out for my
namesake
And you have not grown weary
But i have this against you
That you have abandoned the love you had
(from revelation 2：9-10)
I know your tribulation and your poverty
And the slander of those who say that they are jews, but they
are not
They are a synagogue of satan
Do not fear what you are about to suffer
Behold the devil is about to throw you into prison
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping, praying for you to justify my love
(from revelation 13：1-10)
And i saw a beast rising out of the sea with ten horns and seven
heads
And a blasphemous name upon its head
And the beast that i saw was like a leopard
Its feet were like a bear's
And its mouth was like a lion's mouth
And to it the dragon gave his power, and his throne, and great
authority
One of his heads had a mortal wound
But it seemed to have a mortal wound that was healed
And the whole earth followed the beast with wonder
Men worshipped the dragon for he had given his authority to the
beast
And they worshipped the beast saying
'who is like the beast and who can fight against the beast？'
And the beast was given a mouth uttering haughty and blasphemous
words
And it was allowed to exercise authority for forty-two months
It opened its mouth to utter blasphemous words against god
It was allowed to make war on the saints and to conquer
And authority was given it over every tribe
And a people and tongue and nation
And all who dwell on earth could worship it in vain
If anyone has an ear let him hear
If anyone is to be taken captive, into captivity he will go
If anyone who slays with the sword, with the sword
Wanting, needing, waiting for you to justify my love
Hoping
(from revelation 21：1-8)
Then, i saw a new heaven and a new earth
And i heard a great voice from the throne saying：
'behold the dwelling of god is with men
He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people
And god himself will be with them
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes
And death shall be no more
Neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore
For these things will have passed away
To the thirsty i will give water without price
From the fountain of the water of life
He who conquers shall have this heritage
And i will be his god and he shall be my son
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted
As for the murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolators, and all
liars
Their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and
brimstone.'
(from revelation 22：10-13)
And he said to me, he said to me：
'do not seal up the words of the prophecy, for the time is near
Let the evildoers still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy
And the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy
Behold, i am coming soon
I am the alpha and the omega
The first and the last
The beginning and the end.'
Amen
What are you gonna do？
29.Lament
(eva：)
The choice was mine, and mine completely
I could have any prize that i desired
I could burn with the splendor of the brightest fire
Or else, or else i could choose time
Remember i was very young then
And a year was forever and a day
So what use could fifty, sixty, seventy be？
I saw the lights, and i was on my way
And how i lived, how they shone
But how soon the lights were gone
(che：)
The choice was yours and noone else's
You can cry for a body in despair
Hang your head because she is no longer there
To shine, to dazzle, or betray
How she lived, how she shone
But how soon the lights were gone
(embalmers：)
Eyes, hair, face, image
All must be preserved
Still life displayed forever
No less than she deserved.
30.Latin Chant
(choir：)
Respice, quaesumus, domine
Famulam tuam evita
In infirmitate
Et animam refove, quam creasti
Ut castigationibus emendata
Se tua sentiat medicina salvatam
Per christum, dominuum
Qui vivit et regnat
Per omnia saecula saeculorum
Amen
(translation：
Look with favor, we beseech thee, oh lord
Upon thy handmaid evita
In her weakness
And refresh the soul which thou hast created
That being corrected by thy chastisement
She may find herself cured by thy healing
Through christ, our lord
Who lives and reigns
Forever and ever
Amen )
(che：)
She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the casa rosada crying, 'eva peron'
But that's all gone now
31.Let Down Your Guard(Rough Mix Edit)
Verse：
Won't you come inside, and lay down next to my fire
Can you feel my heartbeat, let me show you my desire
First you have to tell me please, uh huh
Gonna bring you to your knees, uh huh
Gonna make you scream for more
Come inside and lock the door
And let down, let down
Let down your guard
Chorus：
Ahh, ah oww, come inside
Ahh, ah oww, come inside
This is not a one-night stand
I care for you, please understand
Baby won't you come inside
I'll take you for a little ride
I wanna touch you there, uh huh
Run my fingers through your hair, uh huh
Gonna take you for a ride
But you have to come inside
And let down, let down
Let down your guard
(chorus)
Ahh, ah oww
Ahh, ah oww
(verse)
(chorus)
Ahh, ah oow, cause i wanna touch you there
Ahh, ah oww, run my fingers through your hair
Ahh, ah oww, gonna take you for a ride
But you have to come inside
And let down
Let down your guard
uh huh
Gonna make you scream for more
Come inside and lock the door
And let down
(chorus, repeat and fade)
32.Lo Que Siente La Mujer
Lo que siente la mujer
Deliciosa
Labio suave y rosa... baby
Piel de miel, dulce y silenciosa
Te parece confundida
Su pasion esta escondida
Nunca sabes lo que va decir
Cuando empieza a sonreir
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Seductora, pero nunca facil...baby
Misteriosamente dura y fragil
Lagrimas que no te enseña
Su dolor no deja huella
No la trates ya de impresionar
Solo dejate llevar
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender
Lo que siente la mujer
Te parece confundida
Su pasion esta escondida
Nunca sabes lo que va decir
Cuando empieza a sonreir
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender...la mujer
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Quieres ver y tratar de comprender
La mujer...comprender...
Quieres ver
Quieres ver
Quieres ver lo que siente la mujer
Y tratar de comprender
What the woman feels
Delicious, pink and soft lip, baby
Syrup skin, sweet and silence,
She seems to you as confused
Her passion is hidden.
You never know what she's going to say
When she starts to smile.
(chorus：)
Do you want to see what the woman feels？
Do you want to？ and try to comprehend the woman.
Seducer, but she is never easy, baby.
Mysteriously hard and soft,
Tear that she never shows you
Her pain doesn't ever let a clue
Don't try to impress her
Just let yourself go with the flow.
(chorus：) 2 times.
She seems to you as confused
Her passion is hidden.
You never know what she's going to say
When she starts to smile.
(chorus：)
Do you want to see what the woman feels？
Do you want to？ and try to comprehend...
...the womaaaan....compreheeeend.....
(chorus：)
Do you want to see？
Do you want to see？
Do you want to see？ and try to comprehend...
33.Oh What A Circus
(che：)
Oh what a circus, oh what a show
Argentina has gone to town
Over the death of an actress called eva peron
We've all gone crazy
Mourning all day and mourning all night
Falling over ourselves to get all of the misery right
Oh what an exit, that's how to go
When they're ringing your curtain down
Demand to be buried like eva peron
It's quite a sunset
And good for the country in a roundabout way
We've made the front page of all the world's papers today
But who is this santa evita？
Why all this howling, hysterical sorrow？
What kind of goddess has lived among us？
How will we ever get by without her？
She had her moments, she had some style
The best show in town was the crowd
Outside the casa rosada crying, 'eva peron'
But that's all gone now
As soon as the smoke from the funeral clears
We're all gonna see and how, she did nothing for years
(crowd：)
Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina
Ad te clamamus exules filii eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia
Hail, oh queen, mother of mercy
Our life, sweetness, and hope
Hail, hail, oh queen
To you we cry, exiled sons of eve
To you we sigh, mourning and weeping
Oh clement, oh loving one
(che：)
You let down your people evita
You were supposed to have been immortal
That's all they wanted, not much to ask for
But in the end you could not deliver
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through
And she's not coming back to you
Show business kept us all alive
Since seventeen october 1945
But the star has gone, the glamour's worn thin
That's a pretty bad state for a state to be in
Instead of government we had a stage
Instead of ideas, a prima donna's rage
Instead of help we were given a crowd
She didn't say much, but she said it loud
Sing you fools, but you got it wrong
Enjoy your prayers because you haven't got long
Your queen is dead, your king is through
She's not coming back to you
(crowd：)
Salve regina mater misericordiae
Vita dulcedo et spes nostra
Salve salve regina peron
Ad te clamamus exules filii eva
Ad te suspiramus gementes et flentes
O clemens o pia
(eva：)
Don't cry for me argentina
For i am ordinary, unimportant
And undeserving of such attention
Unless we all are, i think we all are
So share my glory, so share my coffin
So share my glory, so share my coffin
(che：)
It's our funeral too
34.On The Balcony Of The Casa Rosada 1
(peron has just won a sweeping victory in the 1946 presidential
Election. this is the first public appearance by peron and eva
Since that triumph.)
(announcer：)
People of argentina
Your newly elected president, juan peron
(crowd chanting：)
(peron：)
Argentinos, argentinos
We are all workers now
Fighting against our common enemies
Poverty, social injustice
Foreign domination of our industries
Reaching for our common goals
Our independence, our dignity, our pride
Let the world know that our great nation is awakening
And that its heart beats in the humble bodies
Of juan peron and his wife
The first lady of argentina, eva duarte de peron
(crowd chanting：)
35.On The Balcony Of The Casa Rosada 2
(eva：)
Just listen to that, the voice of argentina
We are adored, we are loved
(officer：)
Statesmanship is more than entertaining peasants
(eva's sister：)
We shall see little man
(crowd：)
(eva：)
I am only a simple woman
Who lives to serve peron in his noble crusade
To rescue his people
I was once as you are now, and i promise you this
We will take the riches from the obligarchs
Only for you, for all of you
And one day, you too will inherit these treasures
Descamisados, mis companeros
When they fire those cannons, when the crowds sing of glory
It is not just for peron, but for all of us, for all of us
(aristocrats：)
Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower-class
Can be respected and admired
(aristocrat：)
But our privileged class is dead
Look who they are calling for now
36.On This Night Of A Thousand Stars
(che：)
Now eva peron had every disadvantage
You need if you're gonna succeed
No money, no cash
No father, no bright lights
There was nowhere she'd been
At the age of fifteen
As this tango singer found out
Agustin magaldi
Who has the distinction of being the first
Man to be of use to eva duarte
(magaldi：)
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore
In the glow of those twinkling lights
We shall love through eternity
On this night in a million nights
Fly away with me
I never dreamed that a kiss could be as sweet as this
But now i know that it can
I used to wander alone without a love of my own
I was a desperate man
But all my grief disappeared and all the sorrow i'd feared
Wasn't there anymore
On that magical day when you first came my way
Mi amor
On this night
On this night
On this night of a thousand stars
Let me take you to heaven's door
Where the music of love's guitars
Plays for evermore
37.Partido Feminista
(crowd：)
(eva：)
Peron is everything, he is the soul, the nerve
The hope and the reality of the argentine people
We all know that there is only one man in our movement
With his own source of light
We all feed from his light, and that is peron
(che：)
And now she wants to be vice-president
(officers：)
That was the over-the-top, unacceptable suggestion
We didn't approve but we couldn't prevent
The games of the wife of the president
But to give her pretensions encouragement
She's out of her depth, and out of the question
38.Peron's Latest Flame
(che：) at the watering holes of the well-to-do
I detect a resistance to
(aristocrats：) precisely
(che：) our heroine's style
(aristocrats：) we're glad you noticed
(che：) the shooting sticks of the upper-class
(aristocrats：) give her an inch
(che：) aren't supporting a single ass
That would rise for the girl
(aristocrats：) she'll take a mile
(aristocrats：)
Such a shame she wandered into our enclosure
How unfortunate this person has forced us to be blunt
No we wouldn't mind seeing her at harrod's
But behind the jewelry counter, not in front
(che：) could there be in our fighting corps
A lack of enthusiasm for
(army：) exactly
(che：) peron's latest flame
(army：) you said it brother
(che：)
Should you wish to cause great distress
In the tidiest officer's mess
Just mention her name
(army：)
That isn't funny
Peron is a fool, breaking every taboo
Installing a girl in the army h.q.
And she's an actress, the last straw
Her only good parts are between her thighs
She should stare at the ceiling, not reach for the skies
Or she could be his last whore
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
Bitch! dangerous jade
(aristocrats：)
We have allowed ourselves to slip
We have completely lost our grip
We have declined to an all-time low
Tarts have become the set to know
(eva：)
I am only a radio star with just one weekly show
But speaking as one of the people i want you to know
We are tired of the decline of argentina
With no sign of a government able to give us the things we
deserve
(army：)
It's no crime for officers to do as they please
As long as they're discreet and keep clear of disease
We ignore, we disregard
But once they allow a bit on the side
To move to the center where she's not qualified
We are forced to mark his card
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
Slut! dangerous jade
(che：)
This has really been your year, miss duarte
Tell us where you go from here, miss duarte
Which are the roles that you yearn to play？
Whom did you sleep ... dine with yesterday？
(eva：)
Acting is limiting, the line's not mine
That's no help to the argentine
(che：)
Can we assume then that you'll quit？
Is this because of your involvement with colonel peron？
(heavies：)
Goodnight and thank you
(army：)
She won't be kept happy by her nights on the tiles
She says it's his body, but she's after his files
So get back on to the street
She should get into her head
She should not get out of bed
She should know that she's not paid
To be loud but to be laid
The evidence suggests
She has other interests
If it's her who's using him
He's exceptionally dim
(aristocrats：)
Things have reached a pretty pass
When someone pretty lower-class
Graceless and vulgar, uninspired
Can be accepted and admired
39.Rainbow High
(eva：)
There again i've more to do
Than simply get the message through
I haven't started
Let's get this show on the road
Let's make it obvious
Peron is off and rolling
Chorus：
(eva's dressers：)
Eyes, hair, mouth, figure
Dress, voice, style, movement
Hands, magic, rings, glamour
Face, diamonds, excitement, image
(eva：)
I came from the people, they need to adore me
So christian dior me from my head to my toes
I need to be dazzling, i want to be rainbow high
They must have excitement, and so must i
(eva's dressers：)
Eyes, hair, mouth, figure
Dress, voice, style, image
(eva：)
I'm their product, it's vital you sell me
So machiavell me, make an argentine rose
I need to be thrilling, i want to be rainbow high
They need their escape, and so do i
(chorus)
(eva：)
All my descamisados expect me to outshine the enemy
I won't disappoint them
I'm their savior, that's what they call me
So lauren bacall me, anything goes
To make me fantastic, i have to be rainbow high
In magical colors
You're not decorating a girl for a night on the town
And i'm not a second-rate queen getting kicks with a crown
Next stop will be europe
The rainbow's gonna tour, dressed up, somewhere to go
We'll put on a show
Look out, mighty europe
Because you oughta know whatcha gonna get in me
Just a little touch of
Just a little touch of
Argentina's brand of star quality
40.Rainbow Tour
(peron：)
People of europe, i send you the rainbow of argentina
(che：)
Spain has fallen to the charms of evita
She can do what she likes, it doesn't matter much
(aide #1：)
She's our lady of the new world with a golden touch
(aide #2：)
She filled a bull-ring, forty-five thousand seater
(che：)
But if you're prettier than general franco, that's not hard
(aide #1：)
Franco's reign in spain should see out the forties
So you've just acquired an ally who
Looks as secure in his job as you
(aide #2：)
But more important current political thought is
Your wife's a phenomenal asset, your trump card
Chorus：
(peron and aides：)
Let's hear it for the rainbow tour
It's been an incredible success
We weren't quite sure, we had a few doubts
(peron：) will evita win through？
(aides：) but the answer is yes
(peron：)
There you are, i told you so
Makes no difference where she goes
The whole world over just the same
Just listen to them call her name
And who would underestimate the actress now？
(che：)
Now i don't like to spoil a wonderful story
But the news from rome isn't quite as good
She hasn't gone down like they thought she would
Italy's unconvinced by argentine glory
They equate peron with mussolini, can't think why
(eva：)
Did you hear that？ they called me a whore!
They actually called me a whore!
(italian admiral：)
But signora peron it's an easy mistake
I'm still called an admiral
Yet i gave up the sea long ago
(aide #2：)
More bad news from rome; she met with the pope
She only got a rosary, a kindly word
(che：)
I wouldn't say the holy father gave her the bird
But papal decorations, never a hope
(aide #1：)
She still looked the part at st. peter's, caught the eye
(chorus)
(peron：) will evita win through？
(aides：) but the answer is ...
(che：) a qualified
(aides：) yes
(che：)
Eva started well, no question, in france
Shining like a sun through the post-war haze
A beautiful reminder of the care-free days
She nearly captured the french, she sure had the chance
But she suddenly seemed to lose interest
She looked tired
(che：)
Face the facts, the rainbow's starting to fade
I don't think she'll make it to england now
(aide #1：)
It wasn't on the schedule anyhow
(che：)
You'd better get out the flags and fix a parade
Some kind of coming home in triumph is required
(chorus)
(aide #2：) would evita win through？
(aide #1：) and the answer is
(aide #2：) yes
(che：) and no
(aides：) and yes
(che：) and no
(aides：) and yes
(che：) no
(chorus)
(aides：) would evita win through？ but the answer is
(aide #2：) yes
(aide #1：) yes
(aide #2：) yes
41.Requiem For Evita
(crowd：)
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem evita, requiem evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
Grant eternal rest to evita
Grant eternal rest to evita
Rest to evita, rest to evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem aeternum dona evita
Requiem evita, requiem evita
Evita, evita, evita, evita
42.Santa Baby
Santa baby, slip a sable under the tree, for me
I've been an awful good girl
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, an out-of-space convertible too, light blue
I'll wait up for you dear
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Think of all the fun i've missed
Think of all the fellas that i haven't kissed
Next year i could be oh so good
If you'd check off my christmas list
Boo doo bee doo
Santa honey, i wanna yacht and really that's
Not a lot
I've been an angel all year
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa cutie, there's one thing i really do need, the deed
To a platinum mine
Santa cutie, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Santa baby, i'm filling my stocking with a duplex, and checks
Sign your 'x' on the line
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Come and trim my christmas tree
With some decorations bought at tiffany's
I really do believe in you
Let's see if you believe in me
Boo doo bee doo
Santa baby, forgot to mention one little thing, a ring
I don't mean a phone
Santa baby, and hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
Hurry down the chimney tonight
43.Santa Evita
(children：)
Please, gentle eva, will you bless a little child？
For i love you, tell heaven i'm doing my best
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
Please, mother eva, will you look upon me as your own？
Make me special, be my angel
Be my everything wonderful perfect and true
And i'll try to be exactly like you
Please, holy eva, will you feed a hungry child？
For i love you, tell heaven i'm doing my best
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
Please, mother eva, will you feed a hungry child？
I'm praying for you, even though you're already blessed
(workers：)
Santa santa evita
Madre de todos los ninos
De los tiranizados, de los descamisados
De los trabajadores, de la argentina
(repeat and fade)
44.She Is A Diamond
(peron：)
But on the other hand, she's all they have
She's a diamond in their dull gray lives
And that's the hardest kind of stone
It usually survives
And when you think about it, can you recall
The last time they loved anyone at all？
She's not a bauble you can brush aside
She's been out doing what we just talked about, example
Gave us back our businesses, got the english out
And when you think about it, well why not do
One or two of the things we promised to？
But on the other hand, she's slowing down
She's lost a little of that magic drive
But i would not advise those critics present to derive
Any satisfaction from her fading star
She's the one who's kept us where we are
(officers：)
She's the one who's kept you where you are
45.Sidewalk Talk(Extended Dance Mix)
Watch where you walk 'cause the sidewalks talk
And you can't keep a secret from the ground beneath you
Step very lightly on the earth below
Or before you know it everyone will know
Streets were paved with a thousand eyes
And try as you may you can't disguise
There's only two things that you can't hide from
That's you and the ground you're walking on
Chorus：
Watch where you walk, 'cause the sidewalks talk
You better watch what you do, what you do
'cause the sidewalk talk can get carried away
You better watch what you say, what you say
Think when you speak 'cause you gotta 'long the street
They can read what you say so you gotta stay away
From words that sting, words are not true
And the things you say make a fool of you
Little white lies make the sidewalk cry
And you can betray with the things you say
Words won't last when you say 'em too fast
And you've been mislead by the things you've said
(chorus)
Intermediate：
When you're living on the street
Life can be full of misery
Find a place to call your own
Make your heart into a home
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
After every word there's a place that heard
Every time your shoe hits the avenue
And when you've gone they'll sing a song
Of the stories you told when you felt so bold
You better think twice when you cross the ice
Everything you do comes back to you
When you're shedding a tear sidewalks will hear
When your laughter's true they'll run with you
(chorus)
(intermediate)
You can do it, uh huh
(repeat 3 times)
You can do it
(repeat 3 times)
(chorus)
Sidewalk talk
(repeat 3 times)
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
(repeat)
Watch out for sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Sidewalk talk
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout
Let me tell ya 'bout sidewalk talk
46.Supernatural(Original Arms House Mix)
Made your acquaintance late one night
You were floating around, you know you gave me quite a fright
You didn't seem like an ordinary man
More like a ray of light
You transcendentally imposed yourself upon my bed
You know you didn't say very much
I'm out of body and i feel so good in my head
You know i'm really quite touched
I wake up with your fragrance and it's all over me
What cologne do you wear？
I walk around with a smile on my face, 'cause you're close to me
Well i know you're somewhere
Chorus：
Gonna take my chance on a different kind of romance
A supernatural thing
Gonna have my fill, it gives me such a big thrill to be with
A supernatural thing
I stay uplifted for quite some time
(or： you say you've lived here for quite some time)
And i'd say that your skills as a lover are very refined
You know just what i want and i don't have to ask
Are you reading my mind？
You're not demanding for a man, that's really quite rare
You're not the least bit obsessed with your hair
You're not upset when i come home later than ten
For a ghost you're a very good friend
Bridge：
I've got to be a very careful, never know what the neighbors
would say
They already think i'm crazy
I wouldn't like to wake up and find myself in the family way
A ghost baby？
(chorus, repeat)
I know you're out there you little rascal
Stop that
(bridge)
(chorus, repeat)
Gonna take my pants off for a different kind of romance
That super-duper naturally big thing
It's outrageously large
(fade)
47.The Actress Hasn't Learned The Lines(You'd Like To Hear)
(aristocrats：)
Thus all fairy stories end
Only an actress would pretend
Affairs of state are her latest play
Eight shows a week, two matinees
My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn？
My how the worm begins to turn
When will the chorus girl ever learn？
(eva：)
The chorus girl hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't go scrambling over the backs of the poor to be
accepted
By making donations just large enough to the correct charity
She won't be president of your wonderful societies of
philanthropy
Even if you asked her to be
As you should have asked her to be
The actress hasn't learned the lines you'd like to hear
She won't join your clubs, she won't dance in your halls
She won't help the hungry once a month at your tombolas
She'll simply take control as you disappear
(che：)
Forgive my intrusion, but fine as those sentiments sound
Little has changed for us peasants down here on the ground
I hate to sound childish, ungrateful, i don't like to moan
But do you now represent anyone's cause but your own？
(eva：)
Everything done will be justified by my foundation
48.The Lady's Got Potential
(che：)
In june of forty-three there was a military coup
Behind it was a gang called the g.o.u.
Who did not feel the need to be elected
They had themselves a party at the point of a gun
They were slightly to the right of atilla the hun
A bomb or two and very few objected
Yeah, just one shell and governments fall like flies, kapow, die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Backs to the wall, aim high
We're having a ball
The tank and bullet rule as democracy dies
The lady's got potential, she was setting her sights
On making it in movies with her name in lights
The greatest social climber since cinderella
Ok, she couldn't act but she had the right friends
And we all know a career depends
On knowing the right fella to be stellar
Yeah, just one shell and governments lose their nerve, kapow,
die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Backs to the wall, aim high
We're having a ball
That's how we get the government we deserve
Now the man behind the president calling the shots
Involved so discreetly in a lot of their plots
Was colonel juan peron, would be dictator
He began in the army out in italy so
Saw mussolini's rise from the very front row
I reckon he'd do likewise sooner or later
Yeah, just one blast and the tear gas falls like rain, kapow,
die
They haven't a chance, bye bye
The terrorists advance
But one guy doesn't dirty his hands
Peron was biding time out in the slow lane
Yeah, suddenly an earthquake hit the town of san juan, kapow,
die
They stumble and fall, bye bye
Keep away from the wall
But one guy was having a ball
The tragedy, a golden chance for peron
He organized a concert with incredible flair
In aid of all the victims, such a grand affair
Politicians, actors, stars of every flavor
It was january twenty-second, 1944
A night to remember, yeah, that's for sure
For that's the night that peron first met eva
For that's the night that peron first met eva
49.The Look Of Love
Should have left you standing right where you stood
Should have let you go, should have had the sense to know
Like a train you'd come, and i'd lose my place
Now i'm on this trip, i took a fall from grace
Chorus：
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
From the look of love, from the eyes of pride
Nowhere to go, no place to run
From the look of love, now i've come undone
I've had a map laid out from the day i was born
But the roads are blocked, and the paper is worn
And all the books i've read, and the things i know
Never taught me to laugh, never taught to let go
(chorus)
My conscience is clear i know right from wrong
That's a lie i know nothing except that you're gone
But there's more to learn from the look in your eyes
That trip round this world, the stars in the sky
Now all the books i've read, and the things i know
Never taught me to live, never taught me to let go
(chorus)
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
From the look of love, lord knows i've tried
Nowhere to go, no place to run
From the look of love, now i've come undone
50.Veras(You'll See)
Tu piensas que yo no podre vivir sin ti
Tu piensas no podra sobrevivir
Que nada me queda, si no estas junto a mi
Veras que no es asi
Tu piensas que jamas sere feliz sin ti
Que destruiste al fin mi corazon
Que no voy a descubrir la forma de volver atras
Sin ti, yo se que si
Estribillo：
Ya lo veras
No necesito a nadie mas
Podre resistir
Voy a poder seguir
Lo hare por mi
Sera mi gloria personal
Nadie, ni tu, me la podra quitar
Veras
Acepta la verdad, no llorare por ti
Yo se que asi sera, podre salir
Voy a saltar sin red, y no voy a caer
Sera mejor sin ti
(estribillo)
Veras
(translation：
You think i won't be able to live without you
You think： she won't be able to survive
That i have nothing left if you're not by my side
You'll see, it's not like that
You think i'll never be happy without you
That finally you destroyed my heart
That i won't find my way back
Without you, i know i will
Chorus：
You will see
I don't need anyone else
I will resist
I'll manage to go on
I'll do it for myself
It will be my personal glory
No one, not even you, can take it from me
You'll see
Accept the truth, i will not cry for you
I know it'll be so, i will pull through
I'll jump without a net, and i'm not going to fall
It will be better without you
(chorus)
You'll see )
51.Waltz For Eva And Che
(che：)
Tell me before i waltz out of your life
Before turning my back on the past
Forgive my impertinent behavior
But how long do you think this pantomime can last？
Tell me before i ride off in the sunset
There's one thing i never got clear
How can you claim you're our savior
When those who oppose you are stepped on,
Or cut up, or simply disappear？
(eva：)
Tell me before you get onto your bus
Before joining the forgotten brigade
How can one person like me, say,
Alter the time-honored way the game is played？
Tell me before you get onto your high horse
Just what you expect me to do
I don't care what the bourgeoisie say
I'm not in business for them
But to give all my descamisados
A magical moment or two
(che and eva：)
There is evil, ever around
Fundamental system of government
Quite incidental
(eva：)
So what are my chances of honest advances？
I'd say low
Better to win by admitting my sin
Than to lose with a halo
(che：)
Tell me before i seek worthier pastures
And thereby restore self-esteem
How can you be so short-sighted
To look never further than this week or next week
To have no impossible dream？
(eva：)
Allow me to help you slink off to the sidelines
And mark your adieu with three cheers
But first tell me who'd be delighted
If i said i'd take on the world's greatest problems
From war to pollution, no hope of solution
Even if i lived for one hundred years
(che and eva：)
There is evil, ever around
Fundamental system of government
Quite incidental
(eva：)
So go, if you're able, to somewhere unstable
And stay there
Whip up your hate in some tottering state
But not here, dear
Is that clear, dear？
Oh what i'd give for a hundred years
But the physical interferes
Every day more, o my creator
What is the good of the strongest heart
In a body that's falling apart？
A serious flaw, i hope you know that
52.Who's That Girl
Who's that girl, who's that girl
When you see her, say a prayer and kiss your heart goodbye
She's trouble, in a word get closer to the fire
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
You're spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
Chorus：
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
Quien es esa nina, who's that girl
Senorita, mas fina, who's that girl
You try to avoid her, fate is in your hands
She's smiling, an invitation to the dance
Her heart is on the street, tu corazon es suyo
Now you're falling at her feet
You try to get away but you can't
(chorus)
Intermediate：
Light up my life, so blind i can't see
Light up my life, no one can help me now
Run faster, her laughter burns you up inside
He's spinning round and round
You can't get up, you try but you can't
(chorus)
(intermediate)
Who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
Now, who's that girl
(chorus)
53.You Must Love Me
Where do we go from here？
This isn't where we intended to be
We had it all, you believed in me
I believed in you
Certainties disappear
What do we do for our dream to survive？
How do we keep all our passions alive,
As we used to do？
Bridge：
Deep in my heart i'm concealing
Things that i'm longing to say
Scared to confess what i'm feeling
Frightened you'll slip away
Chorus：
You must love me
You must love me
Why are you at my side？
How can i be any use to you now？
Give me a chance and i'll let you see how
Nothing has changed
(bridge)
(chorus)
You must love me
54.Your Little Body's Slowly Breaking Down
(peron：)
Your little body's slowly breaking down
You're losing speed, you're losing strength, not style
That goes on flourishing forever
But your eyes, your smile
Do not have the sparkle of your fantastic past
If you climb one more mountain it could be your last
(eva：)
I'm not that ill, bad moments come but they go
Some days are fine, some a little bit harder
But that doesn't mean we should give up our dream
Have you ever seen me defeated？
Don't you forget what i've been through and yet
I'm still standing
(peron：)
Eva, you are dying
(eva：)
So what happens now？
Where am i going to？
(peron：)
Don't ask anymore
