I'm gonna take a sentimental journey
Gonna set my heart at ease
Gonna make a sentimental journey
To renew old memories

I got my bags, I got my reservations
Spent every dime I could afford
Like a child in wild anticipation
Long to hear that, "All aboard!"

Seven... that's the time we leave at seven
I'll be waitin' up at heaven
Countin' every mile of railroad track, that takes me back

I never knew my heart could be so yearny
Why did I decide to roam?
I'm gonna take that sentimental journey
Sentimental journey home
Sentimental journey
