Smoke Gets In Your Eyes - The Platters - vocals and piano solo by Katy Siu

I sang this lovely Jerome Kern tune from the musical "Roberta" in a private party. Most people know this tune as sung by The Platters. Both The Platters and Broadway versions of this tune have inspired me and it was one of my favorite tunes when I was growing up. I hope you'll like my interpretation as well!

The Platters - Smoke Gets in Your Eyes
music: Jerome Kern
lyrics: Otto Harbach

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 can not hide
So I smile and say
When a lovely flame dies
Smoke gets in your eyes
