The Hollies

The Hollies are an English pop group formed in Manchester in the early 1960s, although the majority of the band members came from towns in East Lancashire. Known for their distinctive vocal harmony style, they became one of the leading British groups of the 1960s and early 1970s. They enjoyed considerable popularity in many countries, although they did not achieve major US chart success until 1966. They had 30 charting singles on the UK Singles Chart, and 21 on the Billboard Hot 100, with songs including, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother", "Carrie Anne", "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress" and "The Air That I Breathe". more »

[Verse 1]
Another day gone and I think of you 
Wonder where you're going 
Wonder what you do 
Without me 

[Verse 2]
A telephone call from a friend I know 
Left me feeling bitter 
Left me feeling so unhappy 

'Cause if you couldn't wait for 24 hours 
What good would telegrams and flowers do 

[Chorus]
If it wasn't for the reason 
That I love you baby 
I wouldn't have another thing 
To say to you 

[Verse 3]
Might as well stay 
For a day or two 
Find another friend 
And have a drink or two 
To pass the time 

[Verse 4]
Talking over troubles 
In a whiskey daze 
A little drop of cognac 
Helps a man to face the lonely times 

'Cause it's sad being home 
And I've given up trying 
I've got no lyin' 
That I want to do 

[Chorus] 

[Verse 5]
Wish I could find a way 
Make up the words to say 
You cheated and you lied 
You took away the little pride 
I had inside 

[Chorus] 

[Verse 1] 

[Verse 2] 

[Verse 4] 

[Verse 5]
