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
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 can not hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
(instrumental)
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 can not hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
