SMOKE GETS IN
YOUR EYES

Words by Otto Harbach
Music by Jerome Kern

A Mickey McBride Arrangement




Verse 1

THEY ASKED ME HOW I KNEW....

MY TRUE LOVE WAS TRUE?

I OF COURSE REPLIED, “SOMETHING HERE INSIDE,

CANNOT BE DENIED”,

   

Verse 2

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,

   

Bridge

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,

   

Verse 3

NOW, LAUGHING FRIENDS DERIDE,

TEARS I CANNOT HIDE,

SO I SMILE AND SAY, “WHEN A LOVELY FLAME DIES.....

SMOKE GETS IN YOUR EYES.”
