These Foolish Things (Remastered) (From "Introducing Johnny Griffin")
Ces Folles Choses (Remasterisé) (De "Présentation de Johnny Griffin")
Oh! Will you never let me be?
Oh! Ne me laisseras-tu jamais tranquille ?
Oh! Will you never set me free?
Oh! Ne me libéreras-tu jamais ?
The ties that bound us
Les liens qui nous unissaient
Are still around us
Sont toujours autour de nous
There's no escape that I can see
Il n'y a aucune échappatoire que je puisse voir
And still those little things remain
Et pourtant, ces petites choses restent
That bring me happiness or pain
Qui m'apportent du bonheur ou de la douleur
A cigarette that bears a lipstick's traces
Une cigarette qui porte les traces d'un rouge à lèvres
An airline ticket to romantic places
Un billet d'avion pour des lieux romantiques
And still my heart has wings
Et mon cœur a toujours des ailes
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
A tinkling piano in the next apartment
Un piano qui tinte dans l'appartement d'à côté
Those stumbling words that told you what my heart meant
Ces mots qui balbutiaient et qui te disaient ce que mon cœur ressentait
A fair ground's painted swings
Des balançoires peintes d'une fête foraine
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
You came you saw you conquer'd me
Tu es venu, tu as vu, tu m'as conquise
When you did that to me
Quand tu m'as fait ça
I knew somehow this had to be
Je savais en quelque sorte que cela devait être
The winds of March that make my heart a dancer
Les vents de mars qui font de mon cœur un danseur
A telephone that rings but who's to answer?
Un téléphone qui sonne, mais qui va répondre ?
Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
Oh, comme le fantôme de toi s'accroche !
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
First daffodils and long excited cables
Les premières jonquilles et les longs câbles excitants
And candle lights on little corner tables
Et des lumières de bougies sur de petites tables d'angle
And still my heart has wings
Et mon cœur a toujours des ailes
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
The park at evening when the bell has sounded
Le parc le soir quand la cloche a sonné
The "Ile de France" with all the gulls around it
L'"Ile de France" avec toutes les mouettes autour
The beauty that is Spring's
La beauté du printemps
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
How strange how sweet to find you still
Comme c'est étrange, comme c'est doux de te retrouver encore
These things are dear to me
Ces choses me sont chères
They seem to bring you near to me
Elles semblent te rapprocher de moi
The sigh of midnight trains in empty stations
Le soupir des trains de minuit dans les gares vides
Silk stockings thrown aside dance invitations
Des bas de soie jetés à terre, des invitations à danser
Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
Oh, comme le fantôme de toi s'accroche !
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
Gardenia perfume ling'ring on a pillow
Le parfum de gardénia qui persiste sur un oreiller
Wild strawb'ries only seven francs a kilo
Des fraises sauvages à seulement sept francs le kilo
And still my heart has wings
Et mon cœur a toujours des ailes
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
The smile of Garbo and the scent of roses
Le sourire de Garbo et le parfum des roses
The waiters whistling as the last bar closes
Les serveurs qui sifflent alors que le dernier bar ferme
The song that Crosby sings
La chanson que Crosby chante
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
How strange how sweet to find you still
Comme c'est étrange, comme c'est doux de te retrouver encore
These things are dear to me
Ces choses me sont chères
They seem to bring you near to me
Elles semblent te rapprocher de moi
The scent of smould'ring leaves, the wail of steamers
L'odeur des feuilles qui fument, le cri des vapeurs
Two lovers on the street who walk like dreamers
Deux amoureux dans la rue qui marchent comme des rêveurs
Oh, how the ghost of you clings!
Oh, comme le fantôme de toi s'accroche !
These foolish things remind me of you
Ces folles choses me rappellent toi
