They ask 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
|
|
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"
|
