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\"
