I don't know if you can see
 The changes that have come over me
 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:
       Let me tell you that I love you and that I think about you all the time
       Caledonia you're calling me and 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 new ones on the way
 I have kissed the ladies and left them crying
 Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
 I have traveled hard with conscience flying
 Somewhere with the wind

 Chorus

 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 are shaken and the kisses flow
 Then I will disappear

 Chorus
