Faraway places with strange sounding names, faraway over the sea.
Those faraway places with the strange sounding names are calling, calling
me.
Going into China or maybe Siam, I want to see for myself
Those faraway places I've been reading about in a book that I took from
the 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, may I am, but I know that I'm burning to see
Those faraway places with strange sounding names, calling, calling me.
