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 youll find All who love are blind When youre hearts 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 Smoke gets in your eyes |
