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, oh, no!

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.

Oh, smoke gets in your eyes.

 

So I chaff them and I gaily laugh to think they could doubt my love.

Yet today my love has gone 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.

(When a lovely flame dies)

 

Da, da-da, da-du-da.

Ba-da-da, da-du-da, da-da.

Ba-da-da, da-du-da, aah-aah.

 

Smoke gets in your eyes!
