Smoke gets in your eyes

They asked me how I knew

my true love was true

I of course replied

"Something here inside

Can not be denied".

They, said "Some day you'll find

all who love are blind"

when you heart's on fire

you must realize

smoke gets in your eyes.

So I chaffed them,

and I gaily laughed

to think they would doubt our love

and yet today, my love has gone 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"

Now laughing friends deride

Tears I cannot hide, I cannot hide,

So I smile and say

"When a lovely flame dies

smoke gets in your eyes"

Smoke gets in your eyes

Smoke gets in your eyes

Smoke gets in your eyes
