Waltz For Eva And Che - Elaine Paige (忆莲·佩姬)/David Essex[00:00:00]
Written by:Andrew Lloyd Webber[00:00:01]
Tell me before I waltz out of your life[00:00:04]
Before turning my back on the past[00:00:08]
Forgive my impertinent behaviour[00:00:12]
But how long do you think this pantomime can last[00:00:16]
Tell me before I ride off in the sunset[00:00:21]
There's one thing I never got clear[00:00:24]
How can you claim you're our saviour[00:00:28]
When those who oppose you are stepped on[00:00:32]
Or cut up or simply disappear[00:00:35]
Tell me before you get onto your bus[00:00:39]
Before joining the forgotten brigade[00:00:42]
How can one person like me say[00:00:47]
Alter the time honoured way the game is played[00:00:51]
Tell me before you get onto your high horse[00:00:55]
Just what you expect me to do[00:00:59]
I don't care what the bourgeoisie say[00:01:02]
I'm not in business for them[00:01:07]
But to give all my descamisados a magical moment or two[00:01:10]
There is evil ever around[00:01:17]
Fundamental system of government[00:01:20]
Quite incidental[00:01:24]
So what are my chances for honest advances I'd say low[00:01:27]
Better to win by admitting my sin than to lose with a halo[00:01:36]
Tell me before I seek worthier pastures[00:01:41]
And thereby restore self esteem[00:01:44]
How can you be so short sighted[00:01:48]
To look never further than this week or next week[00:01:52]
To have no impossible dream[00:01:55]
Allow me to help you slink off to the sidelines[00:02:00]
And mark your adieu with three cheers[00:02:04]
But first tell me who'd be delighted[00:02:08]
If I said I'd take on the world's greatest problems[00:02:12]
From war to pollution no hope of solution[00:02:16]
Even if I lived for one hundred years[00:02:20]
There is evil ever around[00:02:24]
Fundamental system of government[00:02:28]
Quite incidental[00:02:32]
So go if you're able to somewhere unstable[00:02:35]
And stay there[00:02:39]
Whip up your hate in some tottering state[00:02:40]
But not here dear[00:02:43]
Is that clear dear[00:02:46]
Oh what I'd give for a hundred years[00:03:03]
But the physical interferes[00:03:07]
Every day more oh my creator[00:03:11]
What is the good of the strongest heart[00:03:17]
In a body that's falling apart[00:03:24]
A serious flaw I hope you know that[00:03:29]
