Caledonia

Caledonia - Brogue/Paddy O'Gorman

I don't know if you can see

The changes that have come over me

In these Past few days now 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

That's the reason why I seem

So far away today

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

If I should become a stranger

You know that 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

Lost the friends that I needed losing

Found others on the way

I've kissed the first girl and left them singing

Stolen dreams oh there's no denying

I've traveled 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 you're calling me

Now I'm going home

If I should become a stranger

Know that 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 the forest choir

The flames have cooled don'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 hands have shaken the kisses flowed

Then I will disappear

Let me tell you that I love you

And I think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me

Now I'm going home

If I should become a stranger

Know that it would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

Let me tell you that I love you

And I think about you all the time

Caledonia you're calling me

Now I'm going home

If I should become a stranger

Know that it would make me more than sad

Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
