Holly Would Songtext
von Jackie DeShannon

She loved dreams and string-like music
Rite of Spring, she′d often choose it
She spoke like paintings soaked in time
Her autumn-colored hair was fine

She wore cottons quite a lot
She loved herb tea and a coffee pot
She lived with a dog and cat
Forever yours and after that

I remember that to Holly everyone was good
No one has ever loved the way Holly could
She never cared about herself the way she should
No one will ever treat you like Holly would


She collected dolls of Dresden
Always spoke of her friend Yasmine
She was fond of poetry
Durrell, Villon, cummings e e

She loved riding in a train
And "catch me" was her favorite game
She loved Vuillard, Bonnard and Klee
She only ate one meal a day

I remember that to Holly everyone was good
No one has ever loved the way Holly could
She never cared about herself the way she should
No one will ever treat you like Holly would

I remember that to Holly everyone was good
No one has ever loved the way Holly could
She never cared about herself the way she should
No one will ever treat you like Holly would
