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

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed

To think they could doubt my love

Yet today my love has flown 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"

Now laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide

So I smile and say

"When a lovely flame dies,

Smoke gets in your eyes"
