These Foolish Things (11-28-52) |
A cigarette that bears a lipsticks traces |
An airline ticket to romantic places |
And still my heart has wings |
These foolish things remind me of you |
A tinkling piano in the next apartment |
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant |
A fairgrounds painted swing |
These foolish things remind me of you |
You came, you saw and you conquered me |
When you did that to me, I knew somehow this had to be |
The winds of March that make my heart a dancer |
A telephone that rings, but who’s to answer |
Or how the ghost of you clings |
These foolish things remind me of you |
The scent of smoldering leaves |
The vail of steamers |
Two lovers on their street |
Who walk like dreamers |
Or how the ghost of you clings |
These foolish things remind me of you |
How strange, how sweet, to find you still |
These things are dear to me, they seem to bring you so near to me |
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations |
Silk stockings thrown aside, dance invitations |
Or how the ghost of you clings |
These foolish things remind me of you |
Remind me of you |
Remind me of you |
