F C
I don't know if you can see
Dm Bb
The changes that have come over me
F C
These last few days I've been afraid
Dm Bb
That I might drift away
F C
I've been telling old stories, singing songs
Dm Bb
That make me think about where I've come from

That's the reason why I seem
Dm Bb
So far away today
[Refrão] F C
Let me tell you that I love you
Dm Bb
That I think about you all the time
Bb F C F
Caledonia, you're calling me, now I'm going home

But 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 have moved and I've kept on moving
Dm Bb
Proved the points that I needed proving
F C
Lost the friends that I needed losing
Dm Bb
Found others on the way
F C
I've kissed the fellas and left them crying
Dm Bb
Stolen dreams, yes, there's no denying
F C
I've travelled hard, sometimes with conscience flying
Dm B
Somewhere with the wind
[Refrão] F C
Let me tell you that I love you
Dm Bb
That I think about you all the time

F C
Now I'm sitting here before the fire
Dm Bb
The empty room, the forest choir
F C
The flames have cooled, don't get any higher
Dm Bb
They've withered, now they've gone
F C
But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear
Dm Bb
And I know what I will do tomorrow
F C
When hands have shaken, the kisses float
Dm Bb
Then I will disappear
[Refrão] F C
Let me tell you that I love you
Dm Bb
That I think about you all the time
