Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied

They said "someday you'll find all who love are blind"
When your heart's on fire,
You must realize,
smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they would doubt our love
And yet today my love has gone away,
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies,
smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they would doubt our love
And yet today my love has gone away,
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies,
smoke gets in your eyes

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