Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

They ask me how I knew 
My true love was true 
Ohh I of course replied 
Something dear inside 
Cannot be denied 

They said some day you'll find 
All who love are blind 
Ohh when your heart's on fire 
You must realise 
Smoke gets in your eyes 

So I chaffed them 
And I gayly 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 
Ohh so I smile and say 
When a lovely flame dies 
Smoke gets in your eyes 
Smoke gets in your eyes
