Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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 been tellin' old stories and singin' songs
That make me think about where I came from
And that's the reason we seem
So far away today
[Verse 2]
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia calling me
Now I'm going home
And if I should become a stranger
Know it would make me more than sad
'Cause Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
[Verse 3]
Now I have moved and I've kept on moving
I've proved the points that I needed proving
I've lost the friends that I needed losing
And found others on the way
I've kissed the girls and I've left them crying
Stolen dream, yes, there's no denying
I've traveled hard with conscience flying
Somewhere in the wind
[Verse 4]
So let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia calling me
Now I'm going home
If I should become a stranger
You know if would make me more than sad
'Cause Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
[Verse 5]
I'm sitting here before the fire
The empty room and the forest choir
The flames that can'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
And I will disappear
[Verse 6]
Let me tell you that I love you
And I think about you all the time
Caledonia calling me
Now I'm going home
If I should become a stranger
You know it would make me more than sad
'Cause Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
Yes, Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
