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 going where the sun keeps shining

through the pouring rain

going where the weather suits my clothes

backing off the north east wind

sailing on a summer breeze

and skipping over the ocean like a stone

everybody's talking at me

i don't hear a word they're saying

only the echoes of my mind

people stopping

staring

i can't see their faces

only the shadows of their eyes

i'm going where the sun keeps shining

through the pouring rain

going where the weather suits my clothes

backing off the north east wind

sailing on a summer breeze

and skipping over the ocean like a stone

no i won't let you leave my love behind

no i won't let you leave my love behind
