"Caledonia" lyrics

I don't know if you can see the changes that have come over me
In these last 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

But let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me and now I'm going home
But if I shall become a stranger, it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

I have moved and I've kept on moving, proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends that I needed losing, found others on the way
I have kissed the girls and left them crying, stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I have travelled hard, sometimes with conscience flying somewhere in the wind

Let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me and now I'm going home
But if I shall become a stranger, it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

I am sitting here before the fire, an empty room, a forest choir
The flames that couldn't get any higher, they've withered, now they've gone
But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear and I know what I will do tomorrow
When the hands have shaken and the kisses flow, I will disappear

Let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me and now I'm going home
But if I shall become a stranger, it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever

Let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time
Caledonia, you're calling me and now I'm going home
But if I shall become a stranger, it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
