as recorded by Vera Lynn
In the blue Canadian Rockies,
Spring is sighing through the trees,
And the golden poppies are blooming
Round the banks of Lake Louise.
Across the sea they call me,
And I'm lonesome and so blue
For the blue Canadian Rockies
And the boy I love so true.
Oh, how my lonesome heart is aching tonight
For the home I long to see!
Oh, what I'd give if I could be there tonight
With the sweetheart waiting for me!
In the blue Canadian Rockies,
Spring is sighing through the trees,
And the golden poppies are blooming
Round the banks of Lake Louise.
Across the sea they call me,
And I'm lonesome and so blue
For the blue Canadian Rockies
And the boy I love so true.
In the blue Canadian Rockies
Lives the boy I love so true.
