Deborah Cox - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes

They ask 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 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 cannot hide, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed
To think they could doubt my love
And 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
