Better From Further Away by Tim Meredith Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Working
Hardly
Living
For years and we’re dreaming
Of our
Retreat

Existing
On simmer
And biding our dwindling time till
The plan is
Complete

[Verse 2]
40 years
Good service
A handshake
A clock that I really
Do not
Like
But that's ok
We’ve bought 3 acres
A tumbledown
Cottage
The peace
And the quiet

[Chorus]
But it turns out
That sheep
Are much better
From further away

[Verse 3]
Don't move to
The country
It’s not
Like you've been told
They lied

There's murderous
Horses and goats that will take out
Your knees
If you givе them half
A chance
[Chorus]
But it turns out
That sheep
Are much bеtter
From further away
