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 through my opened 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 letterbox
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the Universe.
Jai Guru De Va 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 earth are ringing through my opened ears
Inciting and inviting me.
Limitless, undying love which shines around me like a million suns
And 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. (Repeat)

Verse 1:
Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither as they fall they make their way across the universe
Pools of sorrow waves of joy are drifting through my open mind
Inciting and inviting me
Chorus:
Jai Guru Da La 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
