Caledonia
Music and Lyrics by Dougie MacLean
Published by Limetree Arts and Music (MCPS and PRS UK)
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
So I've been telling old stories, singing songs, that make me think about where I come from
That's the reason why I seem so far away today
Let me tell you that I love you and I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home
But 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
Ive kssed the ladies, left them crying, stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I have traveled hard sometimes with conscience flying somewhere in the wind
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 flow then I will disappear
