Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trains and boats and planes are passing by
They mean a trip to Paris or Rome
For someone else, but not for me
The trains and the boats and planes took you away, away from me
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
You are from another part of the world
You had to go back a while and then
You said that you soon would return again
I'm waiting here like I promised to
I'm waiting here, but where are you?
[Verse 4]
Oh, trains and boats and planes took you away
But every time I see them, I pray
And if my prayer can cross the sea
The trains and the boats and planes will bring you back, back home to me
Whoa
[Verse 5]
The trains and the boats and planes will bring you back, back home to me
Whoa
Written by: Burt Bacharach, Hal David
