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 »

Standing in the shadow 
Of a Spanish lady 
Second hand bargain 
With a song so sad
And a rose in her hand 
Was crying 

Lonely rooms in back of bars 
Bright lights and sitting out in the stars 
There was room to write a poem 

But the words don't come easy 
They're hung on frozen lips standing there 
While the world's anticipating love 
And the words don't come easy 
Lady laughs a laughing tear and says
All we really need today 
Is the sun in our life
The sun in our life 

Money was only mean to buy time 
No money left over 
Made the street to show that the door was open 
Out in the silence of the angry crowd 
Only the beggars crying aloud 
Not a precious thing was spoken 

But the words don't come easy 
They're hung on frozen lips standing there 
While the world's anticipating love 
And the words don't come easy 
Lady laughs a laughing tear and says
All we really need today 
Is the sun in our life
The sun in our life
