Ooh my love, ooh ooh my love
Please don t take my advances too lightly
Don’t be hasty, let the feelin’ come straight from your heart
You’ve been burned too many times before

Accept my love I’m gonna give it to you
Please don’t forsake it and take it and make it my love

I can see what you’re thinkin’ but I won’t let you down
Let your love show and don’t think of the past
Come tomorrow you’ll be happy with the feeling you’ve found
I’m no fool and I ain’t clownin’ around

And if you should want to throw it all away,
It’ll be you who doesn’t want to
Want to make me stay
Come on and do it my way

Ooh my love, ooh ooh my love

Please don’t take my advances too lightly
Let your love show and don’t think of the past
Accept my love, I’m gonna give it to
Please don t forsake it and take it and make it
Please don t forsake it and take it and make it my love

Ooh my love, ooh ooh my love

About Lyrics and My Love by The Hollies

When you decide to study the lyrics to My Love, you're looking at the words, verses and background chorus from the 1976 song by The Hollies. Some of the lyrics to My Love have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references. Like most songs, only The Hollies and their collaborators know the full story behind any of the their songs.

You can understand the lyrics to My Love if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to My Love" means the words set to the music of My Love, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by The Hollies. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to My Love and the lyrics to My Love are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of The Hollies who came here looking just for the lyrics to My Love, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
