ACROSS THE UNIVERSE
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 open mind,
Possessing and caressing meREFRAIN
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 worldImages 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 letterbox
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universeREFRAIN
Sounds of laughter shades of light
Are ringing through my open views
Exciting and inviting me
Limitless undying Love which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on across the universeREFRAIN

Intro : ta da da ta da da ta taaa x4
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, twelve-thirty (12:30) flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
REFRAIN :
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never hadta da da ta da da ta taaa x2The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've becomeREFRAIN :
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never hadta da da ta da da ta taaa x2
