Maclean Dougie Caledonia lyrics

Maclean Dougie
The Dougie Maclean Collection
Caledonia
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 come from
And that's the reason why I seem so far away today

Chorus:

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
For 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've needed proving

Lost the friends that I needed losing
Found others on the way
I have kissed the ladies and left them crying
Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying
I have travelled hard, sometimes 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 have shaken and the kisses flowed
Then I will disappear

Chorus
