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 *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, smoke gets in your eyes)
Smoke-gets-in-your-eyes
