SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES (The Platters)

     They asked me how I knew
     My true love was true
     Oh, I of course replied
     Something here inside
     Can not be denied

     They said someday you'll find
     All who love are blind
     Oh, 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 can not hide
     Oh, so I smile and say
     When a lovely flame dies
     Smoke gets in your eyes
     Smoke gets in your eyes
