CALEDONIA SONG LYRICS

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 slip away,

But I’ve been telling old stories, singing songs

That make me think about where I come from

And thats 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, and now I'm going home

But if I should become a stranger

you know that would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything, I've ever had

I have moved, and I have kept on moving, proved the point that I need proving

Lost some friends that I hated losing, found others on the way

I have kissed the ladies and left them crying

Stolen dreams yes there is no denying,

I have travelled hard times with concience flying, 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, and now I'm going home

But if I should become a stranger

you know that 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 that could'nt get any higher well they’ve withered now they’ve gone

But I'm still thinking my way is clear,

And I know what I’ll do tomorrow

When the hands are shaking and the kisses flow, well I will disappear

Let me tell you that I love you, and I think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me, and now I'm going home

But if I should become a stranger

you know that would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything, I've ever had
