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 you.
A 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 you.

You came, you saw, 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?
O, how the ghost of you clings!
These foolish things remind me of you.

How strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things that are so dear to me
They seem to bring you near to me
The smile of Garbo, the scent of roses
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
A song that Crosby sings...
These foolish things remind me of you
