Caledonia Songtext

Caledonia Songtext
I don′t know if you can see
The changes that have come over me
And 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 come from
And that's the reason why I feel
So far away today
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I'm going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh it would make me more than sad
′Cause Caledonia has been everything I′ve ever had
Now I have moved on
And I've kept on moving
Proved the points that I needed proving
I′ve lost the friends that I needed losing
Found others all on the way
Now I have kissed the fellas
And left them sighing
Stolen dreams oh, there's no denying
I′ve travelled hard
Sometimes with conscience flying
Somewhere with the wind
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I'm going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh it would make me more than sad
′Cause Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
Now I'm sitting here
Before the fire
An empty room
Oh, a forest choir
The flames on wood
Don′t get any higher
They′ve withered now they're gone
But I′m steady thinking
My way is clear
And I know what I'll do tomorrow
The hands have shaken
The kisses flowed and
And I will disappear
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I′m going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh, it would make me more than sad
'Cause Caledonia has been everything I′ve ever had
Yes Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
The changes that have come over me
And 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 come from
And that's the reason why I feel
So far away today
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I'm going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh it would make me more than sad
′Cause Caledonia has been everything I′ve ever had
Now I have moved on
And I've kept on moving
Proved the points that I needed proving
I′ve lost the friends that I needed losing
Found others all on the way
Now I have kissed the fellas
And left them sighing
Stolen dreams oh, there's no denying
I′ve travelled hard
Sometimes with conscience flying
Somewhere with the wind
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I'm going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh it would make me more than sad
′Cause Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
Now I'm sitting here
Before the fire
An empty room
Oh, a forest choir
The flames on wood
Don′t get any higher
They′ve withered now they're gone
But I′m steady thinking
My way is clear
And I know what I'll do tomorrow
The hands have shaken
The kisses flowed and
And I will disappear
Let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia has been calling me
Now I′m going home
And if I shall become a stranger
Oh, it would make me more than sad
'Cause Caledonia has been everything I′ve ever had
Yes Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
