On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
Everything is wonderful
Everything is wonderful
So much better than here
Now that you have flown
Now that you have flown away
Is it really wonderful
So much better than here?
I don't think you're going to find
Perfection that you're seeking
I just want to close my mind
But how can I forget?
When every night
You're floating in my dreams
Like a butterfly
Breathing down my neck
I could never stay
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
They're serving up ice cream today
Always something nice to say
Much better than here
On the far side of the hill
Everyone is so polite
No one gets into a fight
Not a bit like round here
I don't think I ever got
To match your expectations
I tried to be the man I'm not
But how can I break free?
When every night
You're floating in my dreams
Like a butterfly
Breathing down my neck
I could never stay
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
You'd all be sipping tea
On the far side of the hill
With no place set for me
On the far side of the hill
Don't think that I'd fit in
On the far side of the hill
I don't think you're going to find
Perfection that you're seeking
I just want to close my mind
But how can I forget?
When every night
You're floating in my dreams
Like a butterfly
Breathing down my neck
I could never stay
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
On the far side of the hill
