Alberta Sky Lyrics

The Prairie sky stopped me today

The way it does and will again

A patchwork quilt of sweet pastels

My comforter a dear old friend

It wrapped me in familiar winds

I watched a Golden Eagle fly

A moment with my favourite friends

Where Rocky Mountains touch the sky

Combines in the farmlands

The cattle in the fields

Farmers markets shops and fairs

With swings and Ferris wheels

The glaciers feed rivers

And lakes that rest on high

Reflections in the water

Of the Big Alberta Sky

A sunny day and I can see

The bluest sky surrounding me

A winter wonderland delight

Where sunshine dances in the white

And as the seasons come and go

Whatever comes I'll always know

It's here my heart and spirit lie

Beneath the Big Alberta Sky

The rolling southern ranch lands

The country we call Peace

The badlands where the Dino's hide

The Prairies and the trees

And in the West the Chinook Wind

Her breathe so warm and dry

Her arch a regal crown

Across the Big Alberta Sky

The forests where wild things roam

This native land we all call home

Buried deep beneath the soil

Precious metal ore and oil

Rising from this fertile land

Foothills lift their verdant hands

To the Rocky Mountain High

And the Big Alberta Sky

The Rockies took my breath again

The way they do when I'm with them

And in the valleys far below

The mighty rivers start to flow

And there for all the world to see

A watercolour tapestry

The greatest gift to you and I

The beautiful Alberta Sky

I sat and watched the setting sun

Let day turn into night

I saw the Milky Way come on

Was awed by ancient light

Aurora borealis

Waves that seem to fly

Universal colours in

The Big Alberta Sky

A very special part of me

The air I breath the heart of me

The Big Alberta Sky
