smoke gets in your eyes

Harry Belafonte

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied

They said someday youââ?¬â?¢ll find
All who love are blind
When youââ?¬â?¢re heartââ?¬â?¢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 cannot hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
Smoke gets in your eyes
