Lyrics

Once, I was alone
So, lonely and then
You came, out of nowhere
Like the sun up from the hills
Cold, cold was the wind
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
That I couldn’t ignore
Down, down came the Sun
Fast, fast beat my heart
I knew, as the Sun set
From that day we’d never part
