American Graffiti Movie Soundtrack Lyrics
The Platters - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
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 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
So I smile and say
"When a lovely flame dies,
Smoke gets in your eyes"
(smoke gets in your eyes, smoke gets in your eyes)
Smoke gets in your eyes.
