Lyrics

[Chorus]
I wish I could go travelling again
It feels like the summer will never end
And I've had such good offers from several of my friends
I wish I could go travelling again
[Verse 1]
I want to sit in my shades, sipping my latte
Beneath the awning of a famous cafe
Jet-lagged and with our luggage gone astray
I wish I could go travelling again
[Verse 2]
I want a waiter to give us a reprimand
In a language neither of us understand
While we argue about the customs of the land
I wish I could go travelling again
[Verse 3]
I want to sit in traffic anxious about our plane
While your blasé comments drive me half insane
I want to dash for shelter with you through the tropical rain
I wish I could go travelling again
[Verse 4]
I want to be awakened by a faulty fire alarm
In an overpriced hotel devoid of charm
Then fall asleep again, back in your arms
I wish I could go travelling again
[Bridge]
But how can I ever go traveling again?
When I know I'll just keep remembering again
When I know I'll just be gathering again
Reminders to break my heart
[Chorus]
I wish I could go travelling again
It feels like this summer will never end
And I've had such good offers from several of my friends
I wish I could go travelling again
