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 that's 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 there's no denying

I have traveled hard

Sometimes with conscience flying

Somewhere with the wind

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

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 disappear

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

Definitely not auto tuned you slackers! I've witnessed Ruth singing like this in her mum's house near Nottingham.......her voice brings out the goosebumps sure enough. I loved those sessions back then Ruth.....banjo and guitars and lots of laughter! You won't recognise my name on here Ruth, but I hope your family are ok and especially your mum who I used to work with back in the day in Notts! Best wishes xx

I have seen Ruth Notman live a few times, she sounds exactly the same live as she does on this recording!

just the most beautiful folk voice going. And not auto-tuned. I have seen her sing this live, she really does have that flute-like quality and range to her.

Strange to hear a Dougie's song sang with a very English folk voice that somehow doesn't do it the justice it deserves despite her having a great voice for her particular genre.
