Holly Holy Lyrics
Holly holy eyes, dream of only me
Where I am, what I am
What I believe in
Holly holy
Holly holy dream
Wanting only you
And she come
And I run just like the wind will
Holly holy
Sing a song
Sing a song of songs
Sing it out, Sing it strong
Yeah! Yeah!
Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he gonna fly
And I fly, yeah, And I fly
Holly holy love
Take the lonely child
And the seed
Let it be full with tomorrow
Holly holy
Where I am, what I am
What I believe in
Holly holy
Holly holy dream
Wanting only you
And she come
And I run just like the wind will
Holly holy
Sing a song
Sing a song of songs
Sing it out, Sing it strong
Yeah! Yeah!
Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he gonna fly
And I fly, yeah, And I fly
Holly holy love
Take the lonely child
And the seed
Let it be full with tomorrow
Holly holy
Sing a song
Sing a song of songs
Sing it out, sing it strong
Yeah! Yeah!
Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he gonna fly
And I fly, yeah
God (And) I fly
Holly holy dream
Dream 'bout only you
Holly holy sun
Holly holy rain
Holly holy love
Sing a song of songs
Sing it out, sing it strong
Yeah! Yeah!
Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he gonna fly
And I fly, yeah
God (And) I fly
Holly holy dream
Dream 'bout only you
Holly holy sun
Holly holy rain
Holly holy love

Genius Annotation
Two years after he wrote it, Neil Diamond said this about Holly Holy when introducing it at a concert in 1971:
“This song is a stream of consciousness song. Which means, essentially, you never listen to the lyrics. You just listen to the feelings that they convey.
And that’s why, to me, it has magic. But you can’t listen to it. You just have to feel it.“
