They asked me how I knew my true love was true.
I, of course, replied something here inside cannot be denied.
They said some day you'll find all who love are blind.
When your hearts are 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 gets in your eyes.
