You are from another part of the world
You said you soon would return again
The trains and the boats and planes
The trains and the boats and planes
We were so in love and high above
I’m waiting here like I promised to
Took you away, away from me
Took you away, away from me
I’m waiting here, but where are you?
The trains and the boats and planes
We had a star to wish upon wish
You had to go back awhile and then
The trains and the boats and planes
And dreams come true, but not for me
But every time I see him, I pray
Will bring you back, back home to me
For someone else, but not for me
And if my prayer can cross the sea
Oh, oh, trains and boats and planes took you away
