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 some-day 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 could doubt my love.
[01:50.79]Yet today, My love has flown away.
[01:56.61]I am without my love.
[02:04.68]Now laughing friends deride,
[02:09.83]Tears I cannot hide,
[02:17.09]So I smile and say,
[02:20.53]~When a lovely flame dies,
[02:24.09]Smoke gets in your eyes."
