Far Away Places
Alex Kramer, Joan Whitney
Far away places, with strange soundin' names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places, with the strange soundin' names
Are callin', callin' me
Goin' to China or maybe Siam
I wanna see for myself
Those far away places, I've been readin' about
In a book that I took from a shelf
I start gettin' restless whenever I hear
The whistle of the train
I pray for the day 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 burnin' to see
Those far away places, with the strange soundin' names
Callin', callin' me
