I don't know if you can see The changes that have come over me
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've 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
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 kissed the girls and I've left them sighing Stolen dreams, yeah, there's no denying
I've traveled hard, sometimes conscience flying Somewhere with the wind
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
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 floated 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
Caledonia
