The whole tone of this song is very sad. Supposed to generate sympathy for Eva this
time instead of critisizing her motives.
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.
Eva: I want to tell the people, of Argentina.
Don't cry for me Argentina
Have I said too much?
I have decided, I should decline
all the honor, 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.
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.
