Alberta
Alberta's Embrace: A Love Song to Nature's Beauty
Lyrics
I walked out on a morning fair
Starting the day, left a location
Those Rocky Mountains shining
Highlighting the beauty of the Rocky Mountains
Shadows drift o’er frost covered hills
Describing shifting shadows over hills covered in frost
Colours all gold and tan
Depicting colors in shades of gold and tan
Crystal river through the valley ran
Describing a river flowing through the valley
No one’s ever owned me
Expressing lack of ownership or control
It’s the first time that ever I’ve been claimed
Feeling claimed or attached for the first time
Alberta is her name
Referring to the name 'Alberta'
I sat down and wrote to you
Writing a message to someone
I said you should be coming
Expecting the recipient to arrive
You’re never going to see a sky so blue
Describing the extraordinary blue sky
Drapes of green in a northern sky
Depicting green landscapes in the north
Wave like flags as stars dance by
Comparing waving greenery to flags while stars move
Never thought I’d say it
Expressing surprise at feelings
She stole my heart and it’s easy to explain
Having heart captured and finding it easy to explain
Alberta is her name
Reiterating the name 'Alberta'
The word I got from you
Receiving a message from someone else
Said you won’t be coming
Learning that the recipient won't visit
For you back home the skies are plenty blue
Describing the skies at the recipient's location
The emerald hills, and the rocky shore
Mentioning the landscape the recipient prefers
Are all you need, you want no more
Stating contentment with current surroundings
You’ll learn to love another
Suggesting the possibility of finding love elsewhere
Our hearts are true but if we must lay blame
Acknowledging true feelings but assigning blame
Alberta is her name
Reiterating the name 'Alberta'
And to you who wander far
Addressing those seeking comfort elsewhere
Who search for rest and comfort
Encouraging the search for solace
‘Cause you can find no solace where you are
Describing a lack of comfort in current location
Keep your eyes wide
Advising to stay observant
And remember me
Asking for remembrance despite unexpected situation
This ain’t the place I thought I’d be
Expressing surprise at the current romantic situation
But that’s how it goes with romance
Highlighting the unpredictable nature of romance
One breath of her and you’ll never be the same
Describing the transformative effect of encountering 'Alberta'
Alberta is her name
Reiterating the name 'Alberta'
