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 Marlene  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 for you're still but a guest  You could be Garbo or even Marlene  Or you could forget
