Jerome Kern
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
[Verse 1]
They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied

[Verse 2]
They said some day you'll find
All who love are blind
Oh, when your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

[Bridge]
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
(Without my love)

[Verse 3]
Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
Oh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
[Outro]
Smoke gets in your eyes!
