Lyrics
They asked me how I knewMy 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 realize, smoke gets in your eyesSo I chaffed them and I gaily laughedTo think they could doubt my love Yet today my love has flown away, I am without my loveNow laughing friends derideTears I cannot hide So I smile and say When a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyesSmoke gets in your eyes
