The Platters - The Great

Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh-oh-oh-oh, I, of course, replied
"Something here inside
Cannot be denied" (ooh, ooh, ooh)

They said, "Someday you'll find
All who love are blind"
Oh-oh-oh-oh

When your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

So, I chaffed them
As I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt our love

Yet today, my love has flown away
I am without my love (without my love)
Now, laughing friends deride
Tears, I cannot hide
Oh-oh-oh-oh

So, I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes"

(Smoke gets in your eyes)
(Smoke gets in your eyes)
Smoke gets in your eyes
