  • Oh my love for the first time in my life
    My eyes are wide open
    Oh my lover for the first time in my life
    My eyes can see

    I see the wind
    Oh, I see the trees
    Everything is clear in my heart
    I see the clouds
    Oh, I see the sky
    Everything is clear in our world

    Oh my love for the first time in my life
    My mind is wide open
    Oh my lover for the first time in my life
    My mind can feel

    I feel sorrow
    Oh, I feel dreams
    Everything is clear in my heart
    I feel life
    Oh, I feel love
    Everything is clear in our world Writer/s: John Lennon, Yoko Ono

  • Tim from North CarolinaIncredible song and doesn't get enough praise/credit/recognition
  • Tommy Gaston from Rockford IllinoisFor guitarists: Oh my Love = D C#m Bm7 A and then F#m C# D A Very much a Harrison chord inspired progression(s) I love it :-)
  • Tony from Chicago, IlThis song in unbelievably beautiful and simple. John Lennon was perfect at opening his soft side while still remaining the badass John. I think the meaning of the song is pretty obvious.
