Smoke Gets In Your Eyes (From "Roberta")

Smoke Gets In Your Eyes - Eartha Kitt

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 our 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 "

So I chaffed them and I gaily laughed

To think they could doubt our 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 "
