Lyrics

A cig a rette that bears a lip stick’s tra ces,

an air line tick et to ro man tic pla ces,

and still my heart has wings;

these fool ish things re mind me of you.

The winds of March that make my heart a dan cer,

a tel e phone that rings, but who’s to an swer?

Oh, how the ghost of you clings,

these fool ish things re mind me of you.
