A cigarette that bears a lipstick's 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
(...)
These foolish things remind me of you.
[Billie Holiday. These foolish things (Remind Me Of You),
Mercury Records 1952, lyrics from Eric Maschwitz (1936)]
