Madonna - Waltz For Eva & Che Lyrics
(che:)Tell me before I waltz out of your lifeBefore turning my back on the pastForgive my impertinent behaviorBut how long do you think this pantomime can last?Tell me before I ride off in the sunsetTheres one thing I never got clearHow can you claim youre our saviorWhen those who oppose you are stepped on,Or cut up, or simply disappear?(eva:)Tell me before you get onto your busBefore joining the forgotten brigadeHow can one person like me, say,Alter the time-honored way the game is played?Tell me before you get onto your high horseJust what you expect me to doI dont care what the bourgeoisie sayIm not in business for themBut to give all my descamisadosA magical moment or two(che and eva:)There is evil, ever aroundFundamental system of governmentQuite incidental(eva:)So what are my chances of honest advances?Id say lowBetter to win by admitting my sinThan to lose with a halo(che:)Tell me before I seek worthier pasturesAnd thereby restore self-esteemHow can you be so short-sightedTo look never further than this week or next weekTo have no impossible dream?(eva:)Allow me to help you slink off to the sidelinesAnd mark your adieu with three cheersBut first tell me whod be delightedIf I said Id take on the worlds greatest problemsFrom war to pollution, no hope of solutionEven if I lived for one hundred years(che and eva:)There is evil, ever aroundFundamental system of governmentQuite incidental(eva:)So go, if youre able, to somewhere unstableAnd stay thereWhip up your hate in some tottering stateBut not here, dearIs that clear, dear?Oh what Id give for a hundred yearsBut the physical interferesEvery day more, o my creatorWhat is the good of the strongest heartIn a body thats falling apart?A serious flaw, I hope you know that
