"These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)" lyrics

"These Foolish Things (Remind Me Of You)"

A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
An airline ticket to romantic places
A fairgrounds painted swings
These foolish things remind me of you

A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
And still my heart has wings
These foolish things remind me of you

You came, you saw, you conquered me
When you did that to me, I knew somehow
It had to be

The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
A telephone that rings but who's to answer
Oh, how the thought of you clings
These foolish things remind me of you
