Smoke Gets In Your Eyes - B. J. Thomas

They asked me how i knew

my true love was true

ohhhhhh oohhhhhh

i of course replied

something here inside

cannot be denied

They said someday you’ll find

all who love are blind

ohhhhhh oohhhhhh

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 all love

yet today my love has flown away

i am without my love

Now laughing friends deride

tears i cannot hide

ohhhhhh oohhhhhh

so i smile and say

when a lovely flame dies

smoke gets in your eyes

Ohhhhhh oohhhhhh

smoke gets in your eyes

ohhhhhh oohhhhhh
