Canadian Sunset lyrics

Words and Music by Norman Gimbel and Eddie Heywood

Peak Billboard position # 7 in 1956
Competing version by writer Heywood and Hugo Winterhalter hit # 2


Once I was alone
So lonely and then
You came, out of nowhere
Like the sun up from the hills
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/a/andy_williams/canadian_sunset.html ]
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 the love that 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 ever part
