They asked me, how I knew My true love was true I of course replied, something here inside Can not 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 blown 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 would doubt my love Yet today, my love has blown 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
