Hollies, The - Touch Lyrics






Quiet shadows plays in the evening
In the cold sea the sun went down
Bright stars on the blue water
In the hours of the night

All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
Everything's given to people as a law

The wind rests
The creek is like a mirror
And the sailor takes down the sails
Over the meadow
The mist is dancing
You can't believe it
But this is all yours

All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
Everything's given to people as a law

[Break]

Quiet shadows plays in the evening
In the cold sea the sun went down
Bright stars on the blue water
In the hours of the night

All the sweetness touched by hands
Everything's close but so far away
Everything's given to people as a law

Hollies, The Touch Comments
  1. J.... D....

    The Hollies did some great music.

  2. r.... h....

    Sorry carrieanne1967, Rikfors had a really good voice but was no Hollie. Imo they became also-rans after Nash departed, relying on average chart releases and the occasional drab tv appearances and re-releases. And the artwork is a rip off of their 1971 'Distant Light' album

  3. S.... P....

    I bought this album on 8 track and played it constantly. Sounds as good now as back then! Great song!

  4. x.... ....

    I originally bought this album when it came out expecting more of Distant Light. It wasn't what I expected and I shelved it for a long time but after reviewing my entire collection lately, I find it is quite a good album.

  5. K.... H....

    Absolutely superb vocalist from a brilliant album it was a great diversion but theres only one Allan Clarke

    K.... H....

    +Kevin Harkin this song is sung and was written by the bands second vocalist, Mikael Rickfors. Thereaft the diversion!

  6. J.... H....

    Great song, I only discovered a few months ago on my Romany CD, thanks!

  7. p.... ....

    And this was his song on the album too. But, absolutely left a mark on the band's history. If this stuff were played to most, though, I'd have to wonder how many would actually get it that this was the Hollies if there were no clues as to the band's name.

  8. p.... ....

    My first intro to Mikael's voice was "Reason..." which I have to admit I really didn't like and still don't to this day. But then I heard Romany start to finish and realised that there wasn't a duff song on the LP and nor was there a sucky performance. This was a very good line-up for the band to have.

    When I first heard Mikael's vocals I likened then to Scott Walker - A really strong voice !!!

  10. w.... ....

    the lead singer sounds a little like tom jones from time to time.

    w.... ....

    i hear it too

  11. c.... ....

    You are welcome !

  12. J.... ....

    I haven't heard that for many a long year, although I have it on an old LP in the garage somewhere. They produced some good, under rated stuff when Clarkie was on walkabout. all it lacks is a Lanc. accent. Thanks, Carrieanne.

  13. c.... ....

    You are very welcome !

  14. s.... ....

    Thanks for sharing it ♥

  15. c.... ....

    Thanks Marc - Mikael Rickfors was only with The Hollies for a short space of time but he sure left his mark musically - Fantastic lead vocals on this track and harmonies to die for !!!
