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 you´ll find
All who love are blind
When your heart´s on fire
You don´t realise
Smoke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed and I gaily laughed
To think they 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 I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies,
Smoke gets in your eyes."
