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 are 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 And 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
