Smoke Gets In Your Eyes - Lucia Minetti/Giorgio Gaslini
They asked me how I knew my true love was true oh'
I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied
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
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 oh'
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 oh'
I of course replied
Something here inside cannot be denied
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
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 oh'
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies' smoke gets in your eyes
