Vic Damone: Smoke Gets in Your Eyes Lyrics
Songwriters: Jerome Kern;Otto Harbach
|
They ask me how I knew My true love was true I, I of course replied "Something here inside Cannot be denied," oh no |
They said, "Someday you'll find All who love are blind" 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 my love Yet today, my love has flown away I am without my love |
Now laughing friends deride Tears I cannot hide, boo hoo So I smile and say "When a lovely flame dies Smoke gets in your eyes" |

From the Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoke_Gets_in_Your_Eyes :
''Smoke Gets in Your Eyes" is a show tune written by American composer Jerome Kern and lyricist Otto Harbach for their 1933 operetta Roberta. ... In 1956, Vic Damone covered this song with a very dramatic and different rendition, which became one of his most famous songs. ...
In the 1995 series finale of London's Burning the watch members and their wives merrily sing 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes' in Bayleaf's new restaurant. Cast member John Alford later released the song as a single which reached #13 in the UK charts. The song name serves as the title for the first episode of the first season of Mad Men.
