Smoke Gets In Your Eyes

Yesterday, I thought that love would last

That love was sent from above

Yet, today, find my love has flown away

I am without my love

They ask me how I knew

My true love was true

I of course reply

Something deep inside

Cannot be denied

They said someday you'll find

All who love are absolutely blind

When your heart's on fire

You must realise

Smoke gets in your eyes

So I chaffed them

And I gayly laughed

That they would doubt my love

Yet today

I find my love has flown

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

So I chaffed them

And I gayly laughed

That they would doubt my love

Yet today

I find my love has flown

I am without my love

Now laughing friends deride

Tears I cannot hide

So I smile and say

When a lovely flame dies

Love will leave you

Crying in your sleep

Once you're in too deep

Love will leave lost and lonely

Love will break your heart

Love will make you fall apart

The moment that you stop belonging

Nothing ends the pain

Tearing you away

Wondering where you made your big mistake

Wishing on a star

Promises go far

Now, she's gone

Never in my wishing did I think of love's pain

Now, I'll have to think again

My happy ever ending is for someone else.
