Far away places with strange sounding names
Far away places over the sea
Those far away places with 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 strange sounding names
calling, calling me
calling, calling me
