Julia

Named in honor of his mother. It is said that Yoko helped with some of the lyrics. Yoko is mentioned as "Ocean Child" in the song. This was recorded solo by John on 13 October, 1968. No other members of the Beatles were in the studio.

Half of what I say is meaningless
But I say it just to reach you Julia
Julia...Julia
Ocean child...calls me
So I sing a song of love...Julia
Julia...seashell eyes
Windy smile...calls me
So I sing a song of love...Julia
Her hair of floating sky is shimmering
Glimmering...in the sun
Julia...Julia
Morning moon...touch me
So I sing a song of love...Julia
When I cannot sing my heart
I can only speak my mind ...Julia
Julia...sleeping sand...silent cloud
Touch me...
So I sing a song of love...Julia
Touch me...
So I sing a song of love
For Julia...Julia...Julia
