Caledonia

I don't know if you can see the changes
that have come over me
So 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 came from
And that's the reason why I seem so far away today

Chorus:
So 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
And if I should become a stranger, you know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

Now I have moved and I've kept on moving - proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends that I needed losing - and found others
on the way
I have kissed the ladies and left them crying - stolen
dreams, oh there's no denying
And I have travelled hard, sometimes with conscience flying,
somewhere with the wind (Ch)

Now I'm sitting here before the fire, the empty room,
the 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 flowed
then I will disappear
