Faraway places
With strange soundin` names
Faraway over the sea
Those faraway places
With the strange soundin` names
Are callin`, callin` me
Goin` to China
Or maybe Siam
I want to see for myself
Those faraway places
I`ve been readin` about
In a book that I took from a shelf
I start getting 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 faraway places
With the strange soundin` names
Callin`, callin` me...
