Lyrics for Everybody's Talkin'
Everybody's talkin' at me I don't hear a word they're sayin' Only the echoes of my mind People stop, starin' at me I don't even see their faces Only the shadow of their eyes Going where the sun keeps shinin' Through the pourin' rain Goin' where the weather suits my clothes Bankin' off the a northeast wind Sailin' on a summer breeze Skippin' over the ocean like a stone I said, everybody keeps talkin' at me I don't hear a word they're sayin' Only the echoes of my mind People stop, starin' at me I don't even see their faces Only the shadow of their eyes Skippin', skippin', skippin', skip, skip Over the ocean like a stone
