|
A cigarette that bares a lipstick's traces |
|
An airline ticket to romantic places |
|
Still my heart has wings |
|
These foolish things remind me of you. |
|
A tinkling piano in the next apartment |
|
Those stumblin'words |
|
That told you what my heart meant |
|
A fair ground painted swings |
|
These foolish things remind me of you. |
|
You came, you saw, you conquered me |
|
When you did that to me |
|
I knew somehow this had to be |
|
Win the marks |
|
And make my heart a dancer |
|
A telephone that rings |
|
But who's to answer |
|
Oh, how the ghost of you clings |
|
These foolish things remind me of you |
|
The first daffodil and long excited cables, |
|
And candle lights on little corner tables, |
|
And still my heart has wings... |
|
These foolish things remind me of you. |
|
The park at evening when the bell has sounded, |
|
The 'ile-de-france' with all the gulls around it, |
|
The beauty that is spring's... |
|
These foolish things remind me of you. |
|
How strange, how sweetTo find you still, |
|
These things are dear to me, |
|
They seem to bring you near to me. |
|
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations, |
|
Silk stockings tossed aside, dance invitations. |
|
Oh, how the ghost of you clings! |
|
These foolish things remind me of you... |
|
These foolish things remind me of you. |
