Far Away Places

Far away places with strange-soundin'names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with the strange-soundin'names
Are callin', callin’me
Goin’to China or maybe Siam
I want to see for myself
Those far away places I’ve been readin’about
In a book that I took from the shelf
I start gettin’restless whenever I hear
The whistle of a train
I pray for the day I can get underway
And look for those castles in Spain
They call me a dreamer, well maybe I am But I know that I’m burnin’to see
Those far away places with the strange-soundin'names
Callin', callin’me
(I pray for the day when I’ll find a way
Those far away places to see)
Those far away places with the strange-soundin'names
Callin', callin’me
