本曲大意
本曲叙述一位男孩子坠入了情网,周遭的朋友告诉他千万不要被爱情冲昏了头,要理智一点,可是对于一个恋爱中的人而言,他怎么听得进去?到头来得到的只是朋友的嘲讽及自己的伤心。
英文歌曲
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 youll find all who love are blind. Oh, when your hearts on fire, you must realize smoke gets in your eyes."
So I chaffed them and I gaily 1 laughed to think they could doubt my love. Yet today my love has flown away. I am without my love.
Now laughing friends deride 2 tears I cannot hide. Oh, so I smile and say, "When a lovely flame dies, smoke gets in your eyes." Smoke gets in your eyes!
歌词翻译
我的朋友问我为什么我知道我的摰爱会对我忠贞不二。噢,当然,我回答说:『内心深处的一些感受是不容否认的。』
他们说:『有一天你将发现人在恋爱时都是盲目的。噢,当你过分地热情时,你要知道那就会像烟跑进你的眼睛一般无法看清事实。』
于是我快乐地笑着,并嘲笑他们竟会怀疑我的爱情。然而,今天我的爱已飞逝,我失去了我心爱的宝贝。
如今,我那些取笑的朋友嘲弄着我那无法隐藏的眼泪。噢,于是我笑着说:『当可爱的火焰熄灭时,烟会跑进你的眼里让你流泪。』烟跑进了你的眼里!

各位网友请注意:
这首歌第二段及最后一段的smoke gets in your eyes的意思并不相同。前者是表示人在恋爱时, 往往会失去理智, 就如同烟雾挡在你(妳)前面,让你(妳)无法看清事情的真相; 而后者则是当你失去你(妳)所心爱的人后, 你(妳)伤心的哭了起来, 但又怕别人看了笑你(妳), 于是就骗别人说是烟跑进你(妳)的眼里让你(妳)眼睛不舒服而流泪, 就如同我们经常可以在电视上看到一些剧情, 有人在哭, 在旁的人问他(她)什么事, 他(她)为了不想让别人知道他(她)是因为某些事情伤心而落泪, 总会说:『没什么, 只是砂子跑进眼里了。』
