Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh, I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied
[Verse 2]
They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
Oh, when your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes
[Verse 3]
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 (Without my love)
[Verse 4]
Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
Oh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flames dies
Smoke gets in your eyes (Smoke gets in your eyes)
(Smoke gets in your eyes)
Smoke gets in your eyes
