Gonna set my heart at ease,
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories.
Got my bag, I got my reservation,
Spent each dime I could afford.
Like a child in wild anticipation,
I long to hear that: "All aboard!"
Seven, that's the time we leave at seven,
I'll be waitin' up for heaven
Countin' ev'ry mile of railroad track -
That takes me back.
Never though my heart could be so yearny.
Why did I decide to roam?
Gotta take this sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home.
