What are the lyrics to the song 'smoke gets in your eyes'?

Answer 1

Righteous brothers

Answer 2

Originally written by Jerome Kern, with lyrics by Otto Harbach for their 1933 operetta Roberta. A 1935 film adaptation by RKO Pictures starring Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers and Randolph Scott had it performed by Irene Dunn, but the song has been covered by many artists since its release, including Paul Whiteman, Nat King Cole and The Platters, who made the song famous, to name but few. More recently, it has been covered by Eartha Kitt, Roxy Music, David Sanborn and Barbra Streisand.

It has been used in a number of films, including American Graffiti, Always, Being Julia and Tropic Thunder. A variation was also used by Esso for paraffin (kerosene).

Answer 4

They asked me how I knew

My true love was true

Oh, I of course replied

Something here inside cannot be denied

They said someday you'll find

All who love are blind

Oh, 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 can not hide

Oh, so I smile and say

When a lovely flame dies

Smoke gets in your eyes

Smoke gets in your eyes
