Smoke Gets In Your Eyes (From 'Roberta') - 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 "
