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 realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I laughed, oh yes I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt, 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
I say smoke gets in your eyes
