| [00:14.640] | They came for him one winter's night. |
| [00:17.850] | Arrested, he was bound. |
| [00:21.360] | They said there'd been a robbery, |
| [00:24.820] | his pistol had been found. |
| [00:42.710] | They marched him to the station house, |
| [00:46.220] | he waited for the dawn. |
| [00:49.490] | And as they led him to the dock, |
| [00:52.990] | he knew that he'd been wronged. |
| [00:56.920] | "You stand accused of robbery," |
| [01:00.100] | he heard the bailiff say. |
| [01:03.590] | He knew without an alibi, |
| [01:07.10] | tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom. |
| [01:10.820] | Over the hills and far away, |
| [01:14.10] | for ten long years he'll count the days. |
| [01:17.740] | Over the mountains and the seas, |
| [01:21.320] | a prisoner's life for him there'll be. |
| [01:28.750] | He knew that it would cost him dear, |
| [01:31.890] | but yet he dare not say. |
| [01:35.360] | Where he had been that fateful night, |
| [01:38.690] | a secret it must stay. |
| [01:42.710] | He had to fight back tears of rage. |
| [01:45.880] | His heart beat like a drum. |
| [01:49.430] | For with the wife of his best friend, |
| [01:52.680] | he spent his final night of freedom. |
| [01:56.479] | Over the hills and far away, |
| [01:59.880] | he swears he will return one day. |
| [02:03.400] | Far from the mountains and the seas, |
| [02:06.880] | back in her arms he swears he'll be. |
| [02:10.699] | Over the hills and far away. |
| [02:23.900] | Over the hills and, |
| [02:25.340] | over the hills and, |
| [02:26.710] | over the hills and far away. |
| [03:09.740] | Each night within his prison cell, |
| [03:13.150] | he looks out through the bars. |
| [03:16.500] | He reads the letters that she wrote. |
| [03:20.90] | One day he'll know the taste of freedom. |
| [03:23.700] | Over the hills and far away, |
| [03:26.860] | she prays he will return one day. |
| [03:30.579] | As sure as the rivers reach the seas, |
| [03:33.890] | back in his arms he swears she'll be. |
| [03:37.760] | Over the hills and far away, |
| [03:41.170] | he swears he will return one day. |
| [03:44.740] | Far from the mountains and the seas, |
| [03:47.970] | back in her arms he swears he'll be. |
| [03:51.840] | Over the hills and far away, |
| [03:55.20] | she prays he will return one day. |
| [03:58.590] | As sure as the rivers reach the seas, |
| [04:02.120] | back in his arms is where she'll be. |
| [04:06.730] | Over the hills, |
| [04:10.420] | over the hills and far away. |
| [04:12.930] | Over the hills, |
