Far Away Places

(Joan Whitney - Alex Kramer)



Far away places with strange sound and names

Far away over the sea

Those far away places with the strange sound and names

Are callin' callin' me.



Go into 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 a 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 burning to see

Those far away places with the strange soundin' names

Callin' callin' me...
