They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oh, I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied
They said someday youll find
All who love are blind
Oh, when your hearts on fire
You must realize
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
Oh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
(Smoke gets in your eyes, smoke gets in your eyes)
