There are so many fabulous, faraway places to see
Such as Mexico, Sweden, Hawaii, Japan, and Capri
There′s so many exciting and wonderful places
Mountains and jungles and desert oases
As pleasant as home is, it isn't what Rome is
So why stay there?
When there are so many fabulous, faraway places to see
Why should Spain and Tahiti and Rio just be only names to you and me?
I feel certain there′s people we'd be glad to know there
So tell me why don't we get up and we go there
Go to those fabulous places we′re longing to be
Go to Bangkok and Hong Kong and Paris and Venice
Tokyo, Cairo, Lisbon and London
Wonderful, fabulous places we′re longing to see
I'd give anything just to have one single day there
And once that we get there, I know that we′ll stay there
Stay in those fabulous places we're longing to be
Such as Siam, Siena, Vienna, Verona
Java, Jamaica, Bombay, Barcelona
Show me those fabulous places we′re longing to see
Longing to see, longing to see, just you and me
