Lyrics

Trains and Boats and Planes

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

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 the 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

Trains and boats and planes took you away

But ev'rytime 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
