[Verse 1]
Oh, I don't know if you can see the changes that have come over me
These past few days, I've been afraid that I might drift away
So, I've been telling old stories and singing songs that make me think about where I came from
That's the reason why I seem so far away today
[Chorus]
Oh, 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
And if I should become a stranger, know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
[Verse 2]
And I have moved and I've kept on moving, I've proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends that I needed losing, found others along the way
I've kissed the ladies and I've left them crying, and I've stolen dreams, there's no denying
I've traveled far, with conscience flying somewhere with the wind
[Chorus]
Oh, 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
And if I should become a stranger, know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
[Verse 3]
I'm sitting here before the fire, the empty room and the forest choir
The flames that couldn't get any higher, they've withered, now they're gone
But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear and I don't know what I'll do tomorrow
When the hands have shaken and the kisses flow, I might disappear
[Chorus]
Oh, 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
And if I should become a stranger, know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
Oh, Caledonia has been everything I've ever had
