Jerome Kern
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh .....
I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied
So, they said someday you find
All who love are blind
Oh .....
When my heart's on fire
You must realise
Smoke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed them
And I gaily laughed
To think you would doubt my love
Yet today
My love has flown away
I am without my love
Now, laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So .....
Si I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
(interlude)
So they said someday you find
All who love are blind
Oh .....
When your hearts on fire
You must realise
Smoke gets in your eyes
(interlude)
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh .....
I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied So, they said someday you find
All who love are blind
Oh .....
When my heart's on fire
You must realise
Smoke gets in your eyes
