Universe
Electric Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 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 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 opened 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.
Jai Guru Deva.
Jai Guru Deva.
Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world




Nothing's gonna change my world
Nothing's gonna change my world

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Electric's song "Universe" convey a deep sense of introspection and a belief in the power of inner peace and love. The opening lines, "Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup," suggest a stream of consciousness where thoughts and emotions spill out freely. The usage of the metaphorical imagery of rain and a paper cup illustrates the fleeting nature of these thoughts, as they "slither wildly" and "slip away" across the universe. This portrays a sense of surrender and acceptance of the ephemeral nature of our thoughts and experiences.


The chorus, with the repeated line "Nothing's gonna change my world," serves as a mantra affirming the singer's determination to maintain their own perspective and inner peace, regardless of external circumstances. It reflects a belief in the power of the self and the ability to find stability and contentment within, rather than relying on external factors to shape one's reality.


The following verse portrays the different forms of imagery and emotions that traverse the singer's mind. The "images of broken light" dancing in front of them represent fragmented perceptions and experiences, while the "thoughts meandering like a restless wind inside a letter box" depict the chaotic and unpredictable nature of the mind. However, amidst this, there is an underlying sense of stillness and acceptance.


The final verse introduces a shift in tone, as the lyrics mention "sounds of laughter" and "shades of life" that ring through the singer's ears. This highlights the beauty and joy of existence, and the limitless love that surrounds them, described as shining "like a million suns." The repetition of "Jai Guru Deva" serves as a spiritual affirmation, invoking blessings and reinforcing the singer's connection to a higher power.


Overall, "Universe" explores themes of self-discovery, finding inner peace, and embracing the transient nature of life's experiences. It emphasizes the power of one's own perception in shaping their reality and maintaining a sense of contentment amidst the ever-changing world.

Back in mid 90ies when I heard One Love for the first time it was the time when I discovered Goa Trance. It was a great time with all new names for me and each individual track of that period is still very special for me today. But look at this show! 30 years later and whole new level! What a show! Music is so good I can’t stop playing it over and over again! Boris, if you read this, thank you for all your music (Paradise Connection, Galaxy, Jupiter 8000, Electric Universe, etc). Your music was a soundtrack of my life for the last 30 years. You are amazing!
