Lyrics

[00:22] A cigarette that bares a lipsticks traces
[00:29] An airline ticket to romantic places
[00:37] Still my heart has wings
[00:42] These foolish things remind me of you.
[00:51] A tinkling piano in the next apartment
[00:59] Those stumblinwords
[01:03] That told you what my heart meant
[01:07] A fair ground painted swings
[01:13] These foolish things remind me of you.
[01:22] You came, you saw, you conquered me
[01:37] When you did that to me
[01:44] I knew somehow this had to be
[01:52] Win the marks
[01:54] And make my heart a dancer
[02:00] A telephone that rings
[02:03] But whos to answer
[02:08] Oh, how the ghost of you clings
[02:13] These foolish things remind me of you
