I love to waltz with a man in a dark linen suit All alone at a party with someone I knew From a time gone by turned into stone You could be Garbo or even Marlena You could be Marilyn or you could forget I play the part but then all of us do And I do it so well as I do it to you In this town full of strangers In this town full of fools Venus doesn't glitter When she stands next to you When you're waltzing through stardom You miss what you lose Lose yourself in a silvery dress For you think you must do What you feel you do best And you mustn't give it up Oh, you're still but a guest You could be Garbo or even Marlena Or you could forget Forget, forget, forget (You could be Garbo) You could forget, you could forget
