They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I, I of course replied
Something here inside
Cannot be denied
Oh no

They said, some day you'll find
All who love are blind
Oh, oh
When your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them then, then 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, hide
Ooh-ooh, so I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies

Smoke gets in your eyes
