They asked me how

I knew my true love was true

I of course replied

Something here inside

Can not 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 can not hide

So I smile and say

When a lovely flame dies

Smoke gets in your eyes

Yet today my love has flown away

I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride

Tears I can not hide

So I smile and say

When a lovely flame dies

Smoke gets in your eyes
