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 realise smoke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed them and I gayly 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
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 realise smoke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed them and I gayly 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
