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 »

Well, I've known this girl forever
From the playground to the dance hall
From the same old dirty housing 
I call her friend
All her friends I will call my friends
All the time we call our own
Well, we used to stand together
Now I stand alone 

This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go 

Well, I should've seen it coming
Well, I should've read the signs
She was gone in the morning
Left me with red eyes at night
Well, she couldn't even tell me
Didn't tell me I'm out of line
'Cause my courage must've failed her
Turning out the light 

This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go 

What if I should find you
Drag you to your room
That's the trouble you've been struggling go too soon

Well, I hope you make it big time
Well, I hope you got it right
That the way you got no heart to put up a fight
Maybe I'm new to this small town
But I still got more than you
Why don't you just try and call me
When you're passing through 

This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go 

What if I should find you
Take you to a movie
That's the trouble you've been struggling go too soon

This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go 
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, how was I the last to know
This is it, it's touch and go
