These Foolish Things - Ella Fitzgerald

[00:04.76]Oh! Will you never let me be?
[00:09.45]Oh! Will you never set me free?
[00:15.07]The ties that bound us
[00:17.39]Are still around us
[00:19.95]There's no escape that I can see
[00:26.30]And still those little things remain
[00:32.34]That bring me happiness or pain
[00:39.15]
[00:41.21]A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
[00:49.86]An airline ticket to romantic places
[00:58.99]And still my heart has wings
[01:04.87]These foolish things remind me of you
[01:15.56]A tinkling piano in the next apartment
[01:24.48]Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
[01:33.13]A fair ground's painted swings
[01:38.65]These foolish things remind me of you
[01:49.75]You came you saw you conquer'd me
[02:06.29]When you did that to me
[02:13.77]I knew somehow this had to be
[02:22.96]The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
[02:31.25]A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
[02:40.22]Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
[02:45.20]These foolish things remind me of you
[02:54.77]
[02:55.99]First daffodils and long excited cables
[03:04.14]And candle lights on little corner tables
[03:12.45]And still my heart has wings
[03:17.86]These foolish things remind me of you
[03:28.40]The park at evening when the bell has sounded
[03:36.51]The "Ile de France" with all the gulls around it
[03:45.05]The beauty that is Spring's
[03:50.36]These foolish things remind me of you
[04:00.94]How strange how sweet to find you still
[04:17.48]These things are dear to me
[04:24.54]They seem to bring you near to me
[04:34.16]The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
[04:41.50]Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations
[04:49.70]Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
[04:55.09]These foolish things remind me of you
[05:05.11]
[05:06.66]Gardenia perfume ling'ring on a pillow
[05:14.29]Wild strawb'ries only seven francs a kilo
[05:22.43]And still my heart has wings
[05:27.88]These foolish things remind me of you
[05:38.66]The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses
[05:46.73]The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
[05:55.36]The song that Crosby sings
[06:01.59]These foolish things remind me of you
[06:10.59]How strange how sweet to find you still
[06:26.77]These things are dear to me
[06:33.90]They seem to bring you near to me
[06:43.07]The scent of smould'ring leaves, the wail of steamers
[06:51.18]Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
[06:58.96]Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
[07:04.81]These foolish things remind me of you
[07:27.77]
