Lyrics Engelbert Humperdinck

Engelbert Humperdinck

Far Away Places

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 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 burnin' to see

Those far away places, with the strange soundin' names,

Callin', callin' me
