Hollies – This Is It lyrics

Well I've known this girl forever
From the playground to the dance hall
From the same old dirty houses we both called home
All her friends I would call my friends
All the time we called our own
Where we used to stand together
Now I stand alone

This is it and how was I the last to know
This is it and 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
They say red sky in the morning
Left me with red eyes at night
Well she couldn't even tell me
Didn't (unintelligible)
Suppose her courage must've failed her
Turning out the light

chorus

What if I should find you
Drag you to your room
That's the trouble, you've been striking gold too soon
Well I hope you make it big time
Well I hope you've got it right
I just pray you've got the heart to put up a fight
Maybe I'm driven 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

chorus

What if I should find you
Drag you to a movie
That's the trouble, you been striking gold too soon
