Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they saying
Only the echoes of my mind
[Verse 2]
People stopping, staring
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
[Verse 3]
I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin'
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Bankin' off of the northeast winds
Sailin' on the summer breeze
And skippin' over the ocean like a stone
[Verse 4]
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind
[Verse 5]
People stoppin', starin'
I can't see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes
[Verse 6]
I'm goin' where the sun keeps shinin'
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Banking off of the northeast winds
Sailing on summer breeze
Sail on, sail on
Skippin' over the ocean like a stone
[Verse 7]
Everybody's talkin' at me
Can't hear a word they're sayin'
Only the echoes of my mind
[Verse 8]
No, I won't let you leave my love behind
[Verse 9]
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're sayin'
[Verse 10]
Everybody's talkin' at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
[Verse 11]
Everybody's talkin' at me
