Dinah Washington - Smoke Gets In Your Eyes Lyrics






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 are 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 love flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes"

    Total big agreement

    They asked me how I knew
    My true love was true
    I of course 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 don't realize
    Smoke gets in your eyes
    So I chaffed and I gaily laughed
    To think they would 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."

  14. A.... R....

    amazing!

  15. F.... T....

    This is probably the best ever version of this classic song with regards to The Platters, also superb. Love it.

    F.... T....

    Fred Tappin agree

    F.... T....

    I disagree. This is a classy version, certainly. But it doesn't have the burning passion of the Platters' version, which is what makes that one definitive.

  16. C.... H....

    ...immer wieder möchte ich Sie höhren...<3...

  17. s.... ....

    MAGIC!! also done by another totally class singer[Tony Williams, Platters lead singer] been angered by Amy Winehouse fans, who try to place Her in this August company,there was, and will only ever be one Dinah !! Surely, logic dictates, that if your favourite singer,listens to, and is influenced by another,it's the better singer.So make comparisons??

  18. W.... S....

    best version imo

  19. m.... r....

    Emmadale Sent me here
