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 »

Open up your eyes looking at the people 
Wouldn't it be nice if they were always smiling 
Open up your eyes looking at the people 
Wouldn't it be nice if they were always smiling smiling 

Wake in the morning 
Look out of my window 
Down on the street as the people pass by 
Wonderful faces awake but asleep 
Rushing around with appointments to keep 
Rushing around with appointments to keep 

Bald-headed banker with bowler on head 
Credit for debit but still in the red 
Schoolgirl in pigtails and freckly nose 
Trying to remember her Latin prose 
Trying to remember her Latin prose 

[Chorus] 
Open up your eyes open up your eyes 
Open up your eyes open up your eyes 
Isn't it surprising what you'll find 

Open up your eyes open up your eyes 
What are they thinking 
What's on their minds 
Are they all looking for something to find 
Decreasing circles running around 
Searching for something they've already found 
Searching for something they've already found 

[Chorus] 

Open up your eyes looking at the people
