Lyric discussion by 1brightday 

Yes, this song is beautifully song by The Platters. Thus, I really hate to spoil everyone's believable meaning or interpretation for this song but, I have my own version of it which is totally off from others. Partially because I know mostly family members in my childhood and many friends that do smoke, and so therefore I am an anti-smoker/user. This is my opinion of what this song means to me or seems to imply given in their words whenever I hear it.

I believe this song is meant for the smokers only and how they deeply feel about their smoking products itself, their smoking habits, and their devoted love for their smoking practices or zealous selfish reasons. The smokers and their love for the products are somewhat considered an inseparable pair. One person can not go without the other half indubitably or live without it almost indefinitely.

Yes smoke does gets in your eyes by hurting it which makes you somewhat teary eyes, visions unclear, and hard to focus. Smokers have a very strong profound affection for its many altered uses and how it delivers the affects to them inside medically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. So whenever they are at the end of each smoke, it briefly expires to be later extinguished. So their love duration is temporarily being put out of commission for the time being. Until theoretically, they are at the mercy for that next undeniable and selfish uncontrollable urge. This monotonous irresistible smoke craving is so believed to be utterly ridiculous and completely ludicrous to oneself and among others.
