 Watch: New Singing Lesson Videos Can Make Anyone A Great Singer

I walked out on a morning fair
Those Rocky Mountains shining
Shadows drift o’er frost covered hills
Colours all gold and tan
Crystal river through the valley ran
No one’s ever owned me
It’s the first time that ever I’ve been claimed
Alberta is her name

I sat down and wrote to you
I said you should be coming
You’re never going to see a sky so blue
Drapes of green in a northern sky
Wave like flags as stars dance by
Never thought I’d say it
She stole my heart and it’s easy to explain
Alberta is her name

The word I got from you
Said you won’t be coming
For you back home the skies are plenty blue
The emerald hills, and the rocky shore
Are all you need, you want no more
You’ll learn to love another
Our hearts are true but if we must lay blame
Alberta is her name

And to you who wander far
Who search for rest and comfort
‘Cause you can find no solace where you are
Keep your eyes wide
And remember me
This ain’t the place I thought I’d be
But that’s how it goes with romance
One breath of her and you’ll never be the same
Alberta is her name
