Smoke Gets In Your Eyes lyrics

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 realise 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 So I smile and say When a lovely flame dies Smoke gets in your eyes
