They asked me how I knew My true love was true I of course replied Something here inside Cannot be denied They, said some day you'll find All who love are blind When you heart's on fire You must realize Smoke gets in your eyes So I chaffed them, and I gaily laughed To think they would doubt my love Yet today, my love has gone away I am without my love (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) So I chaffed them, and I gaily laughed To think they would doubt my love Yet today, my love has gone away I am without my love (without my love)
