Lennon-McCartney's
Lyrics
The Beatles in Paris

Across The Universe

Lennon/McCartney, released on Let It Be 1970

Lead singer: John, © 1968 Northern Songs

.

Words are flowing out like

endless rain into a paper cup

They slither while they pass

They slip away across the universe

Pools of sorrow waves of joy

are drifting thorough my open mind

Possessing and caressing me

.

Jai guru deva om

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

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 open 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

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

Jai guru deva
