Once I was alone
So
So lonely and then you came out of nowhere like the sun up from the hills
Cold
Cold was the wind
Warm
So warm
Warm were your lips out there on that ski trail
Where your kiss filled me with thrills

A weekend in Canada
A change of scene was the most I bargained for
And then I discovered you
And in your eyes I found a love I couldn't ignore

Down
Down came the sun
Fast
Fast
Fast beat my heart
I knew when the sun set from that day we'd never part

A weekend in Canada
A change of scene was the most I bargained for
And then I discovered you
And in your eyes I found a love I couldn't ignore

Down
Down came the sun
Fast
Fast
So fast
Fast beat my heart
I knew when the sun set from that day we'd never part
We'd never part
We'd never part
