Gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

I got my bag, I got my reservation
Spent each dime I could afford
But 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 waiting up for heaven
Counting every mile of railroad track that moves me back

I never thought my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
Gotta take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home

Gotta take a sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
