원래는 비틀즈의 노래이다. 난 이 노래를 통해서 피오나 애플이란 가수를 알게 되었는데,
개인적으로 원곡보다 이 노래를 더 좋아한다. 나른한 목소리를 듣고 있자면 오히려 권태가
씻겨내려가는듯한 느낌이 들곤한다.

존 레논이 이곡을 쓰게된 동기가 재밌어서 카피해놓는다.

"John Lennon started writing this while lying in bed with his first wife, Cynthia. John said Cynthia was talking on and on and the words to this song started floating into his head. He couldn't sleep, got out of bed and wrote as much as he could. Lennon said it was one of his favorites. He especially liked the lyrics." (thanks for the info go to Mike - Mountlake Terrace, WA. U.S.A)




Across the Universe

Words are flying 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
That 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
exciting 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
