They asked me how I knew my true love was true
I ofcourse replied something here inside cannot be denied
They said someday you'll find all who love are blind
When your heart's on fire you must realise 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 laughting friends deride tears I cannot hide
So I smile and say when a lovely flame dies smoke gets in your eyes
