Ward Thomas – Caledonia lyrics

[Verse 1]
I don’t know if you can see the changes that have come over me
These last few days I’ve been afraid that I might drift away
I’ve been telling old stories, and singing songs
That make me think about where I come from
That’s the reason why I seem so far away today

[Chorus]
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 should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia’s been everything I’ve ever had

[Verse 2]
I have moved and kept on moving
Proved the point that I needed proving
Lost the friends I needed losing, found others on the way
I've kissed the boys and left them crying
Stolen dreams, there’s no denying
Traveled hard with conscience flying
Somewhere in the wind

[Chorus]
And 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
Annd if I should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia’s been everything I’ve ever had

[Verse 3]
Now I’m sitting here before the fire
The empty room, the forest choir
The flames that could not 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
Then I will disappear

[Chorus]
And 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 should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia’s been everything I’ve ever had
