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 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 though my heart could be so yearny Why did I decide to roam Gotta take a sentimental journey Sentimental journey home
