They came for him one winter's night.
Arrested, he was bound.
They said there'd been a robbery,
his (1)____________ had been found.

They (2)______________ him to the station house,
he (3)____________ till the dawn.
And as (4)________ led him to the dock,
he knew that he'd been wronged.
"You (5)__________ (6)______________ of robbery,"
he heard the bailiff say.
He knew (7)______________ an alibi,
tomorrow's light would mourn his freedom.

Over the hills and far away,
for ten long years he'll count the days.
Over the mountains and the seas,
a prisoner's life for him there'll be.

He knew that it (8)__________ cost him dear,
but yet he (9)________ not say.
Just (10)__________ he'd been that fateful night,
a (11)____________ it must stay.
He had to (12)__________ back tears of rage.
His heart beat like a drum.
For with the (13)________ of his best friend,
he spent his final night of freedom.

Over the hills and far away,
he swears he (14)________ return one day.
Far (15)________ the mountains and the seas,
back in her arms (16)__________ he'll be.
Over the hills and far away.

Over the hills and,
over the hills and,
over the hills and far away.

Each (17)__________ (18)____________ his prison cell,
he looks out through the bars.
He reads the letters that she wrote.
One day he'll know the taste of freedom.

Over the (19)__________ and far away,
she prays he (20)________ return one day.
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
back in his arms again she'll be.

Over the hills and far away,
he swears he will return one day.
As (21)________ as the river reach the seas,
back in his arms is (22)__________ she'll be.

Over the hills and far away,
she (23)__________ he (24)________ return one day.
As (25)________ as the rivers (26)__________ the sea,
back in her arms is where he'll be.

Over the hills,
over the hills and far away.

Over the hills,
over the hills and far away.
