SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES
The Platters

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
In your eyes...

So chaffed them and I gayly laughed
To think they could doubt my love
Yet today my love has flown away
I am without my love

And now, laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
