Far away places with strange sounding names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with strange sounding names
Calling, calling me
Going to China or maybe Siam
I want to see for myself
Those far away places I've read all about
In a book that I took from the shelf
I start getting restless whenever I will hear
The whistle woo-woo of a train
I'll pray to see the day that I can get under way
And look for those castles in Spain
They call me a dreamer, well maybe I am
But I know that I'm burning to see
Those far away places with strange sounding names
Calling, calling to me
Calling, calling to me, calling to me
