Escrita
por John Lennon mas creditada à dupla Lennon/McCartney, foi gravada
em 4 e 8 de fevereiro de 1968 e lançada no disco Let it be, em 8 de
maio de 1970. As palavras “words are flowing out like endless rain
into a paper cup” vieram pra John ainda em 1967, quando sua esposa
Cynthia não parava de falar, de recclamar sobre algo.
A
canção teve o sabor influenciado pelo interesse de John na época
em meditação transcendental. “Jai Guru Deva om” significa toda
a Glória ao guru Deva.
John
Lennon acha que essa foi a melhor letra que ele escreveu. Foi gravada
junto com Lady Madonna, Hey Bulldog e The Inner Light.
John
Lennon cantou, tocou violão e guitarra, Paul tocou oiano, George
Harrison tocou tambura e Ringo tocou maracas e baixo bateria.
Foi
regravada por Cilla Black, David Bowie, Rufus Wainwright, Scorpions,
Fiona Apple, entre outros artistas.
A
letra:
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
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
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
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
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
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
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
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
