These Foolish Things Lyrics


A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of youA tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumblin' words that told you what my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings
These foolish things remind me of youYou came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I knew somehow this had to beThe winds of March that 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 youThe scent of smouldering leaves the wail of steamers
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
Oh how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of youHow strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things are dear to me
They seem to bring you so near to meThe sigh of midnight trains in empty stations

Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations
Oh how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
Remind me of you
Remind me of you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
