These Foolish Things

[Verse 1]
Oh will you never let me be?
Oh will you never set me free?
The ties that bound us
Are still around us
There's no escape that I can see

[Verse 2]
And still those little things remain
That bring me happiness or pain
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
And still my heart has wings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Verse 3]
A tinkling piano in the
Next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you
What my heart meant
A fairground's painted swings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Bridge]
You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me
I somehow knew that this had to be

[Verse 4]
The 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

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Verse 5]
Gardenia perfume ling'ring
On a pillow
Wild strawberries only seven
Francs a kilo
And still my heart has wings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Album Version Verse 6]
The park at evening
When the bell has sounded
The pier d'France
With all the gulls around it
The beauty that is spring

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Bridge]
I know, that this, was bound to be
These things have haunted me
For you've entirely enchanted me

[Verse 7]
The sigh of midnight trains
In empty stations
Silk stockings thrown aside
Dance invitations
Oh, how the ghost of you clings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Album Version Verse 8]
First daffodils
And long excited cables
And candle lights
On little corner tables
And still my heart has wings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Verse 9]
The smile of Garbo
And the scent of roses
The waiters whistling as the
Last bar closes
The song that Crosby sings

[Chorus]
These foolish things
Remind me of you

[Bridge]
How strange, how sweet, to find you still
These things are dear to me
That seem to bring you so near to me

[Verse 10]
The scent of smould'ring leaves
The wail of steamers
Two lovers on the street who
Walk like dreamers

[Outro]
Oh, how the ghost of you clings
These foolish things
Remind me of you
Just you
