Bing Crosby Lyrics

"Far Away Places" lyrics



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

Going to China or maybe Siam
I want to see for myself
Those far away 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 maybe I am
But I know that I'm burning to see
Those far away places with the strange-sounding names
Calling, calling me

(I pray for the day when I'll find a way
Those far away places to see)

Those far away places with the strange-sounding names
Calling, calling me
