They ask 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 is 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
So I smile and say
'When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes'

~~~♫♫♫ ~~~

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, in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes'
