Caledonia

I don't know if you can see

the changes that have come over me

and these past few days I've been afraid

that I might drift away

I've been telling old stories, singing songs

that make me think about where I come from

and that's the reason why I seem

so far away today

So, let me tell you that I love you

that I think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me

now I'm going home

And if I shall become a stranger

No, it would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

Well I have moved

and I've kept on moving

Proved the points

that I needed proving

I've lost the friends

that I needed losing

found others on the way

And I've have kissed the fellas

and left them sighing

stolen dreams yes there's no denying

I've traveled hard

sometimes conscience flying

somewhere with the wind

So, let me tell you that love you

that think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me

now I'm going home

And if I shall become a stranger

No, it would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

Now I'm sitting here

before the fire

the empty room

a forest choir

the flames have cooled

don't get any higher

they've withered now

they're gone

And I'm steady thinking

my way is clear

and I know what

I will do tomorrow

the hands have shaken

the kisses flowed

and I will disappear

So, let me tell you that I love you

that I think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me

now I'm going home

and if I shall become a stranger

no it would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
