Forgive my intrusion, Evita, I just have to see
How you admit you have lost--a brand new experience
We got it set up! We fixed you a broadcast--and you're so
good on the air!
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
(a microphone is switched on--she is now on the air)
I want to tell the people of Argentina
I've decided I should decline
All the honors and t**les 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
Forgive my intrusion, Evita, I just have to see
How you admit you have lost--a brand new experience
We got it set up! We fixed you a broadcast--and you're so
