[00:07.948]They  came  for  him  one  winter's  night.
[00:12.10]Arrested,he  was  bound.
[00:16.68]They  said  there'd  been  a  robbery,
[00:19.975]his  pistol  had  been  found.
[00:31.704]They  marched  to  the  station  house,
[00:35.714]he  waited  for  the  dawn.
[00:39.573]And  as  they  led  him  to  the  dock,
[00:43.533]he  knew  that  he'd  been  wronged.
[00:47.490]"You  stand  accused  of  robbery,"
[00:51.393]he  heard  the  bailiff  say.
[00:55.301]He  knew  without  an  alibi,
[00:59.207]tomorrow's  light  would  mourn  his  freedom.
[01:03.214]Over  the  hills  and  far  away,
[01:07.19]for  ten  long  years  he'll  count  the  days.。
[01:11.72]Over  the  mountains  and  blue  seas,
[01:14.676]a  prisoner's  life  for  him  there'll  be.
[01:22.542]He  knew  that  it  would  cost  him  dear,
[01:26.650]but  yet  he  dare  not  say.
[01:30.607]Where  he'd  been  that  fateful  night,
[01:34.412]a  secret  it  must  stay.
[01:38.524]He  had  to  fight  back  tears  of  rage.
[01:42.427]His  heart  beat  like  a  drum.
[01:46.389]For  with  the  wife  of  his  best  friend,
[01:50.244]he  spent  his  final  night  of  freedom.
[01:54.99]Over  the  hills  and  far  away,
[01:57.955]he  swears  he  will  return  one  day.
[02:02.12]Far  from  the  mountains  and  blue  seas,
[02:05.763]back  in  her  arms  he  swear  he'll  be
[02:09.871]Over  the  hills  and  far  away.
[02:20.627]Over  the  hills  and,
[02:22.554]over  the  hills  and,
[02:24.684]over  the  hills  and  far  away.
[03:15.522]Each  night  within  his  prison  cell,
[03:19.276]he  looks  out  through  the  bars.
[03:23.388]He  reads  the  letters  that  she  wrote.
[03:27.193]One  day  he'll  know  the  taste  of  freedom.。
[03:31.707]Over  the  hills  and  far  away,
[03:34.901]she  prays  he  will  return  one  day.
[03:39.59]As  sure  as  the  rivers  reach  the  seas,
[03:43.16]back  in  his  arms  is  where  she'll  be.
[03:46.922]Over  the  hills  and  far  away,
[03:50.829]he  swears  he  will  return  one  day.
[03:54.888]over  the  mountains  and  the  seas
[03:58.794]back  in  her  arms  is  where  he'll  be.
[04:02.648]Over  the  hills  and  far  away,
