Lyrics Smoke Gets in Your Eyes - Peter Hofmann

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oo--oo--oh I of course replied
"Something here inside
Cannot be denied"

They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
Oo--oo--oh When your heart's on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
Oo--oo--oh I of course replied
"Something here inside
Cannot be denied"
Smoke gets in your eyes

They said someday you'll find
All who love are blind
Oo--oo--oh 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 our love
Yet today, my love has gone away
I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
Oo--oo-oh So I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes"
Smoke gets in your eyes.

Now laughing friends deride
Tears I cannot hide
Oo--oo-oh So I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes"
Smoke gets in your eyes.
