What does the Beatles lyrics "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" really mean?

lots of Beatles lyrics are in code

John Lennon said the LSD was just coincidence with Lucy in the Sky. He then started looking at all the initials of all his other songs to see if there were any other songs with abbreviations. I heard this on the Lost Lennon Tapes by Lennon himself. I believe him, he sounded so sincere about it. He said that Julian brought him a picture he drew and it was called Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.
