Lyrics:

I have a story to unfold
It happened way up north in days of old
I lost my way and found a heart of gold
Under blue Canadian skies
Her lips were sweeter than the wine
Her hair was fragrant as the northern pine
And suddenly I knew that love was mine
Under blue Canadian skies

She yielded for a moment as I whispered
\'I love you, Alouette...\'
She sighed and then replied, \' My hand is promised
So, my dear, we must both forget...\'

It was a bitter thing to part
The church bells woke me to an early start
I traveled southward, but I left my heart
Under blue Canadian skies...
