Far away places de Perry Como

Far away places with strange-sounding names
far away over the sea
those far away places with the strange-sounding 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 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 burnin' to see
those far away places with the strange-sounding names
callin', callin' me
