Tomorrow Never Knows
Marta Sui Tubi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Turn off your mind, relax and float down stream,
It is not dying, it is not dying
Lay down all thoughts, surrender to the void,
It is shining, it is shining.
Yet you may see the meaning of within
It is being, it is being
Love is all and love is everyone
It is knowing, it is knowing
And ignorance and hate mourn the dead
It is believing, it is believing
But listen to the colour of your dreams
It is not leaving, it is not leaving




I play the game Existence to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning...
