Far away places with strange sounding names Far away places over the sea Those far away places with the strange sounding names
Are calling, calling me Goin´ to China, or maybe Siam I wanna see for myself Those far away places I´ve been reading 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 burning to see Those for away places with the strange sounding names
