Music & lyrics by The Beatles

Words are flowing out like
Endless rain into a paper cup.
They slither wildly as they slip
Away across the universe.

Pools of sorrow waves of joy
Are drifting through my opened mind,
Possessing and caressing me.

Jai Guru Deva Om (Hail to the divine guru)

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Images of broken light, which
Dance before me like a million eyes,
They call me on and on
Across the universe.

Thoughts meander like a
Restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly
As they make their way
Across the universe.

Jai Guru Deva Om (Hail to the divine guru)

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter, shades of life
Are ringing through my opened ears
Inciting and inviting me.

Limitless undying love, which
Shines around me like a million suns,
It calls me on and on
Across the universe

Jai Guru Deva Om (Hail to the divine guru)

Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Jai Guru Deva (Hail to the guru)
Jai Guru Deva (Hail to the guru)
Jai Guru Deva (Hail to the guru)
