| They asked me how I knew | |
| My true love was true | |
| Oh, I of course replied | |
| Something here inside cannot be denied | |
| They said someday you'll find | |
| All who love are blind | |
| 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 my love | |
| Yet today my love has flown away | |
| I am without my love | |
| Now laughing friends deride | |
| Tears I can not hide | |
| Oh, so I smile and say | |
| When a lovely flame dies | |
| Smoke gets in your eyes | |
| Smoke gets in your eyes |
