oh will you never let me
be
oh will you never set me free
the ties that bound us
are still around
us
there=B9s no escape that I can see
and still those little things remain
that bring
me happiness or pain
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 swings
these foolish things
remind me of
you
you came
you saw
you conquered me
when you did that to me I somehow
knew that this had to be
the winds of March that make my heart a dancer
a telephone
that rings but who=B9s to answer
oh how the ghost of you clings
these foolish
things
remind me of you
gardenia perfume lingering on a pillow
wild
strawberries only 7 francs a kilo
and still my heart has wings
these foolish
things
remind me of you
I know
that this
was bound to be
these things
have haunted me for you=B9ve entirely enchanted me
the sigh of midnight trains in empty
stations
silk stockings thrown aside and sin-vitations
oh how the ghost of you
clings
these foolish things
remind me of you
the smile of Garbo and the scent
of roses
the waiters whistling as the last bar closes
the song that Crosby
sings
these foolish things
remind me of you
how strange
how sweet
to
find you still
these things are dear to me that seem to bring you so near to me
the
scent of smoking 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
you
just you | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
