Trains and Boats and Planes Lyrics
Trains and boats and planes are passing by
They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
To someone else, but not for me
The trains and boats and planes
Took you away
Away from me
We were so in love, and high above
We had a star to wish upon
Wish and dreams come true, but not for me
The trains and the boats and planes
Took you away
Away from me
You are from another part of the world
You had to go back awhile and then
You said you soon would return again
I'm waiting here like I promised to
I'm waiting here, but where are you?
Trains and boats and planes took you away
But every time I see them I pray
And if my prayers can cross the sea
The trains and the boats and planes
Will bring you back
Back home to me
They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
To someone else, but not for me
The trains and boats and planes
Took you away
Away from me
We had a star to wish upon
Wish and dreams come true, but not for me
The trains and the boats and planes
Took you away
Away from me
You had to go back awhile and then
You said you soon would return again
I'm waiting here like I promised to
I'm waiting here, but where are you?
But every time I see them I pray
And if my prayers can cross the sea
The trains and the boats and planes
Will bring you back
Back home to me
