Everybody's Talking
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
only the echoes of my mind!
People stop an' starin'
I can't even see their faces
only the shadows of their eyes!
Goin' where the sun keeps
a-shinin'
through the pouring rain
goin' where the weather suits my
clothes!
Bankin' off the north-east wind
sailin' on a summer breeze
skippin' over the ocean like a stone!

Goin' where the sun keeps
shinin'
through the pouring rain
goin' where the weather suits my
clothes!
Bankin' off the north-east wind
sailin' on a summer breeze
skippin' over the ocean like a stone!
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
only the echoes of my mind!
I won't leave my love behind
No, I won't leave my love behind
. . .
Everybody's talkin' at me . . .
