Everybody's Talkin'


Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind

People stopping, staring
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes

I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin'
Thru' the pourin' rain
Goin' where the weather suits my clothes
Backin' off the north east wind
Sailing on a summer breeze
And 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
