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
