Song by Ferry, Bryan<br /><br>
Oh will you never let me be?<br>
Oh will you never set me free?<br>
The ties that bound us are still around us<br>
There's no escape that I can see<br>
And still those little things remain<br>
That bring me happiness or pain<br>
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces<br>
An airline ticket to romantic places<br>
And still my heart has wings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
A tinkling piano in the next apartment<br>
Those stumbling words that told you<br>
What my heart meant<br>
A fairground's painted swings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
You came, you saw, you conquered me<br>
When you did that to me<br>
I somehow knew that this had to be<br>
The winds of march that make my heart a dancer<br>
A telephone that rings, but who's to answer?<br>
Oh, how the ghost of you clings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
Gardenia perfume ling'ring on a pillow<br>
Wild strawb'ries only seven francs a kilo<br>
And still my heart has wings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
The park at evening when the bell has sounded<br>
The ?le-de-France with all the girls around it<br>
The beauty that is Spring<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
I know that this was bound to me<br>
These things have haunted me<br>
For you've entirely enchanted me<br>
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations<br>
Silk stockings thrown aside, dance invitations<br>
Oh, how the ghost of you clings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
First daffodills and long excited cables<br>
And candle light on little corner tables<br>
And still my heart has wings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses<br>
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes<br>
The song that Crosby sings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you<br>
How strange, how sweet to find you still<br>
These things are dear to me<br>
That seem to bring you so near to me<br>
The scent of smould'ring leaves, the wail of steamers<br>
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers<br>
Oh, how the ghost of you clings<br>
These foolish things<br>
Remind me of you, just you<br>
 <br>
