Caledonia
.
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 tellin' old stories, singing songs
That made me think about where I've come from
And that's the reason why I seem so far away today.
.
Let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me, now I'm goin' home
But if I should become a stranger
Know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.
.
I have moved, and I've kept on movin'
Proved the points that I needed provin'
Lost the friends that I needed losin'
Found others on the way
.
I've kissed the girls and left them crying
Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I've traveled hard sometimes with conscience flyin'
Somewhere in the wind
.
Let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me, now I'm goin' home.
But if I should become a stranger
Know that 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, the forest choir
The flames have cooled, don'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 hands have shaken, the kisses float
Then I will disappear
.
Let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me, now I'm goin' home
But if I should become a stranger
Know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.
