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