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 »

Take me home 
Sailing on with Romany 
To and fro on a icy morning 
Feeling calm to have an old friend 'round 
Feeling warm to see the wind blow down 

Take me home 
Where saints and children laughing 
Tell the Dutchman ships are passing 
Feeling safe to reach the harbor sound 

 Feeling warm to see the wind blow down 
Take me home 
Leave the galley sailors talking 
Leave the bridge and captain's walking 
Feeling naked on the covered ground 
Feeling warm to see the wind blow down 

The wind blowed 
Down in the moonless light 
The sea was dark 
The breeze was light 
Everyone's thoughts were their own 
Caught by the ocean thief 
The bow hit on a coral reef 
Romany sank like a stone
