Lyrics

[00:00.75] Rod Stewart - These foolish things
[00:02.12]
[00:13.09] A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
[00:19.11] An airline ticket to romantic places
[00:25.06] And still my heart has wings
[00:28.96] These foolish things remind me of you
[00:34.32]
[00:36.93] A tinkling piano in the next apartment
[00:42.76] Those stumblin' words that told you what my heart meant
[00:48.37] A fairground's painted swings
[00:52.13] These foolish things remind me of you
[00:58.42]
[01:00.17] You came,
[01:03.15] You saw,
[01:06.16] And you conquered me
[01:11.90] When you did that to me
[01:16.90] I knew somehow this had to be
[01:21.52]
[01:23.76] The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
[01:29.26] A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
[01:35.37] Oh, how the ghost of you clings
[01:38.97] These foolish things remind me of you
[01:44.84]
[02:16.10] The scent of smouldering leaves the wail of steamers
[02:22.14] Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
[02:27.89] Oh how the ghost of you clings
[02:31.54] These foolish things
[02:34.36] Remind me of you
[02:37.26]
[02:39.84] How strange,
[02:42.56] How sweet,
[02:45.31] To find you still
[02:51.34] These things are dear to me
[02:56.40] They seem to bring you so near to me
[03:02.05]
[03:03.00] The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
[03:08.46] Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations
[03:14.67] Oh how the ghost of you clings
[03:18.31] These foolish things
[03:22.76] Remind me of you
[03:28.00]
[03:30.07] Remind me of you
[03:33.81]
[03:35.75] Remind me of you
