D Bm Em7 A7
A cigar - ette that bears a lipstick's traces,

An airline ticket to ro-------mantic places,

D Bm Em7 A7
A tinkling piano in the next a - partment,

A fairgrounds painted swings, these fool - ish things re - mind me of you!
G Em G Gm9 Gm(b9) Gm7
You came, you saw, you conquered me,

When you did that to me, I, somehow, knew that this had to be!

A tele - phone that rings, but... who's to answer?

The park at evening when the bell has sounded,

First daffo - dils, and long ex-----cited cables,

And candle - light on little... corner tables,
D D7 G G G/F# Em Em7 A7
And still my heart has wings, these fool - ish things re - mind me of you,
D Bm Em7 A7
The smile of Garbo, when the scent of roses,
D Bm Em7 A7
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes,

The song that... Crosby sings, these fool - ish things re - mind me of you!
G Em G Gm9 Gm(b9) Gm7
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 smouldering leaves, the wail of steamers,
D Bm Em7 A7
Two lovers, on the street, who... walk like dreamers,

Oh, how the ghost of you clings,
G G/F# Em Em7 A7
These fool - ish things re - mind me of you, just you!
D Bm Em7 A7 D Bm Em7 A7
