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

(Smoke gets in your eyes)
(Smoke gets in your eyes)
Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes
