They asked 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 love are blind
When your heart's on fire, you must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes
So I chaffed and then I gaily laughed
To think that 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
