Orlando Pops Orchestra - Lament - From "Evita" lyrics

Artist: Orlando Pops Orchestra

album: The Best of Andrew Lloyd Webber (Collectors' Edition)


The choice was mine and mine completely
I could have any prize that I desired
I could burn with the splendor of the brightest fire
Or else, or else I could choose time
Remember I was very young
And a year was a forever and a day
So what use could fifty, sixty, seventy be
I saw the lights and I was on my way
And how I lived, how I shone
But how soon the lights were gone
The choice was mine and no one else's
I could have the millions at my feet
Give my life to people I might never meet
Or else to children of my own
Remember I was very young then
Thought I needed the numbers on my side
Thought the more that loved me, the more loved I'd be
But such things cannot be multiplied
Oh my daughter, oh my son
Understand what I have done
Eyes, hair, face, image
All must be preserved
Still life displayed forever
No less than she deserved
CHE (spoken):
Money was raised and a tomb was built
A monument to Evita
Only the pedestal was completed
And Evita's body disappeared for seventeen years
