Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

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 your 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'
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.'
