They came for him one winter's night Arrested, he was bound They said there'd been a robbery, His pistol had been found They marched to the station house, He waited for the dawn And as they led him to the dock, He knew that he'd been wronged "you stand accused of robbery," He heard the bailiff say He knew without 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 blue seas, A prisoner's life for him there'll be He knew that it would cost him dear, But yet he dare not say Where he'd been that fateful night, A secret it must stay He had to fight back tears of rage His heart beat like a drum For with the wife of his best friend, He spent his final night of freedom Over the hills and far away, He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and blue seas, Back in her arms he swear he'll be Over the hills and far away Over the hills and, Over the hills and, Over the hills and far away Each night within 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 hills and far away, She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas, Back in his arms she swears she'll be Over the hills and far away, He swears he will return one day Far from the mountains and blue seas Back in her arms is where he'll be Over the hills and far away, She prays he will return one day As sure as the rivers reach the seas, Back in his arms is where she'll be Over the hills Over the Hills Over the hills and far away Over the hills Over the Hills Over the hills and far away
@@Antonius-ko3df actually its supposed to be she was in a unhappy forced marriage. The man framed is her true love who to save his true love for being put under trial for adultery he takes the bullet
Mastery at its finest.

They came for him one winter's night
Arrested, he was bound
They said there'd been a robbery,
His pistol had been found
They marched to the station house,
He waited for the dawn
And as they led him to the dock,
He knew that he'd been wronged
"you stand accused of robbery,"
He heard the bailiff say
He knew without 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 blue seas,
A prisoner's life for him there'll be
He knew that it would cost him dear,
But yet he dare not say
Where he'd been that fateful night,
A secret it must stay
He had to fight back tears of rage
His heart beat like a drum
For with the wife of his best friend,
He spent his final night of freedom
Over the hills and far away,
He swears he will return one day
Far from the mountains and blue seas,
Back in her arms he swear he'll be
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills and,
Over the hills and,
Over the hills and far away
Each night within 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 hills and far away,
She prays he will return one day
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
Back in his arms she swears she'll be
Over the hills and far away,
He swears he will return one day
Far from the mountains and blue seas
Back in her arms is where he'll be
Over the hills and far away,
She prays he will return one day
As sure as the rivers reach the seas,
Back in his arms is where she'll be
Over the hills Over the Hills
Over the hills and far away
Over the hills Over the Hills
Over the hills and far away
What a kickass song about a man sleeping with another mans wife and getting framed for robbery 😂
That’s awesome
Nice!!!!
Let's get this to 1M views
Seriously, what has the youtube algorithm been doing for 6 years ?
Nightwish is probably only metal band that sounds amazing in nightcore
Woowww😮😮😮
This is absolutely incredible. But I just looked up the lyrics.... man this is kind of messed up
I like to think the best friend did the robbery with his pistol, karmic justice haha. So while the wife was with him, the best friend did the robbery.
@@Antonius-ko3df honestly I was thinking the same thing
@@Antonius-ko3df actually its supposed to be she was in a unhappy forced marriage. The man framed is her true love who to save his true love for being put under trial for adultery he takes the bullet
@@insertname5371 I feel like nothing in the song points to that, was it explained by the writer(s) of the song somewhere else?
@@Antonius-ko3df the song is supposed to be old af. From what I understand it was written taking into account the values of the time.
