Hibernia is the old name for Ireland
Caladonia is the old name for Scotland

And we left home in search of a better future, dreaming of home.



I don't know if you can see
the changes that have come over me
and these past 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 thats the reason why I seem
so far away today

Let me tell you that I love you
that I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
now I'm going home
and if I shall become a stranger
no it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had

well I have moved
and I've kept on moving
proved the points
that I needed proving
I've lost the friends
that I needed losing
found others on the way
I have kissed the fellas
and left them sighing
stolen dreams yes theres no denying
I've travelled hard
sometimes with conscience flying
somewhere with the wind

Let me tell you that love you
that think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
now I'm going home
and if I shall become a stranger
no 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
a forest choir
the flames have cooled
don't get any higher
they've withered now
they're gone
and I'm steady thinking
my way is clear
and I know what
I will do tomorrow
the hands have shaken
the kisses flowed
and I will dissappear

Let me tell you that I love you
that I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
now I'm going home
and if I shall become a stranger
no it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
