Another Time

de Dougie MacLean

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 came from
And that's the reason why I seem so far-away today

Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That 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

Now, 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
I have kissed the ladies and left them crying
Stolen dreams, yes, there's no denying
I have traveled hard, sometimes with conscience flying
Somewhere with the wind

Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That 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

Now, I'm sitting here before the fire
The empty room, the forest choir
The flames that could not 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
Well, I will disappear

Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That 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
