Sweet Caledonia |
| It was a Highland wedding |
| For two love stricken faces |
| Treacle wasted and hearts were full |
| In these cobblestone built walls |
| With luscious garden pathways that lined the outside and down the hill |
| There was an old weeping willow |
| That stood where the path opened |
| It had a rope swing and white wood bench |
| We would sit there for ages |
| While our parents' all drank like sailors |
| Wondering where these stars hide |
| How did I get so far |
| How did I get so far |
| Running away from you? |
| How did I get so caught up |
| How did I get so lost |
| Trying to hide from you? |
| My childhood |
| We’d use pocket knives to carve weapons |
| And venture out into the woods |
| That stretched for miles from the backyard fence |
| Beneath the canopies we’d fight imaginary beings |
| Like all the ones we’d dream at night |
| How did I get so far |
| How did I get so far |
| Running away from you? |
| How did I get so caught up |
| How did I get so lost |
| Trying to hide from you? |
| My childhood |
| But I can still taste sweet Caledonia |
| Sweet Caledonia |
| Sweet Caledonia (oh you’re fading away from me) |
| Sweet Caledonia |
| Yeah I can still taste sweet Caledonia |
| You see it when you start to grow |
| How far the little things they go |
| Yeah I can still taste sweet Caledonia |
| Our youth is like a brick in Rome |
| It’s hard to ever really know |
| What’ll stay with you when you’re older |
