Blake Rose - Sweet Caledonia lyrics

[Verse 1] It was a island wedding For two love striken faces Trick are wasting and hearts were full These ghosts on the walls [?] just got in pathways The line they outside, and down to help There was an old weeping willow It stood where the path opened It had a rope swing and wide wood bench We would sit there for ages While our parents all drank like sailors Wondering where these stars went [Chorus] 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? From my shadow [Verse 2] We'd use pocket knives to carve weapons Adventure out into the woods And stretch for miles from the backyard fence Then we forget [?] we fight Imaginary beings Like all the ones we dream at night [Chorus] 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? From my childhood, yeah Yeah, I could still taste, Sweet Caledonia Sweet Caledonia Sweet Caledonia (Oh, oh, I'm fading) Sweet Caledonia Sweet Caledonia You say when it start to glow How far the little things they go Yeah, I could still taste, Sweet Caledonia [?] like a breaking road It's hard to ever really know But I'll stay with you when you're older
