Tomorrow Never Knows...

I heard a song the other night, and knew that I had heard it before, but I couldn't for the life of me remember where or when. The one I listened to was a cover by Phil Collins, on another CD that was in the "getting rid of" stack. I was picking my brain about who sang it before, and recalled it being on a movie soundtrack... The Craft. I could not figure out who sang the original though, so I had to Google it. Turns out it was by ... the Beatles.  The album was "Revolver" and I have a funny feeling that I used to have the vinyl LP.

"Tomorrow Never Knows"

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

So play the game "Existence" to the end
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning
Of the beginning, of the beginning

Wow... listening to the words, really listening to just the words and reading them after what seems like an eternity, makes me wonder if the interrelated structure of reality has indeed brought me full circle, from the ending of one to the beginning of another. Hell... I knew that the end of many things was here, I just didn't know when the beginning is supposed to begin... and of what? All I saw...  all that I yet see... is the void of uncertainty.
