🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Far away places with strange sounding namesFar away places over the seaThose far away places with the strange sounding namesAre calling, calling meGoin’ to China, or maybe SiamI wanna see for myselfThose far away placesI’ve been reading aboutIn a book that I took from a shelfI start getting restless whenever I hearThe whistle of a trainI pray for the day I can get underwayAnd look for those castles in SpainThey call me a dreamerWell maybe I amBut I know that I’m burning to seeThose for away places with the strange sounding namesCalling, calling meCalling, calling me
