Context

This line is from the song "Across the Universe" by The Beatles, from the album No One's Gonna Change Our World (1969).

John Lennon said that "Across the Universe" was probably the most poetic song he ever wrote and we've got to agree. The repeated line in the chorus is a simple meditation affirming that no one, or nothing, is gonna ruin Lennon's joy and happiness. It's a good thing to remind yourself when you're making your way across the universe.
