Smoke Gets In Your Eyes(sumokugettsuinyuaaizu) 野口五郎

They asked me how I knew
My true love was true
I of course replied
Something here inside ,
Cannot be denied .
They said someday youll find ,
All who love are blind ,
When your hearts on fire
You must realize
Smoke gets in your eyes .

So I chaffed them and I gayly 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 cannot hide
So I smile and say
" When a lovely flame dies
Smoke get in your eyes "
