Garbo
1988 / Text: Rob& Ferdi Bolland / Musik: Rob & Ferdi Bolland
She had exquisite style, she was upper class
she had supernatural grace
A melange of Aphrodite and Venus
combined with an angel’s face
She didn’t talk to the press
she couldn’t care less
She didn’t even answer the phone
She said on one occasion, without persuasion
„I wanna be left alone“
From this moment on from dusk till dawn
‚till the end of time, I’ll be with you
you’ll be with me, forever in my mind
It’s you I see before me, oh, oh, Garbo
C’est toi que je t’adore, oh, oh, Garbo
A lover’s greatest story, oh, oh, Garbo
The say: „Well that’s amore!“, oh, oh, Garbo (2 times)
People say on the day of victory, no fatigue is felt
Garbo, it’s you who has the power
that makes every man’s heart melt
They say that when the heart’s on fire
sparks fly out of the cage, but beauty is like a good wine,
it tastes sweeter with age
No man can guess in cold blood, what he may do in passion
‚cause the things he deplores today are tomorrow’s latest fashion
Serving one’s own passion is the greatest slavery
but if in wanting you, I become your slave, I intend no bravery
From this moment on …
It’s you I see before me, … (2 times)
C’est toi que je t’adore, oh, oh, Garbo
A lover’s greatest story, oh, oh, Garbo
It’s you I see before me, … (rep till end)
