The Platters - Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

.

They asked me how I knew my true love was true

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, I, of course replied

"Something here inside cannot be denied"

(Do-do-do, do-do-do, do-do-do, whoa)

.They said, "Someday, youll find all who love are blind

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, when your hearts 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 (without my love)

.

Now, laughing friends deride tears I cannot hide

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, so I smile and say

"When a lovely flame dies

Smoke gets in your eyes" (smoke gets in your eyes)

Smoke gets in your eyes
