Everybody’s Talkin’

by Fred Neil

from the album Meet Me In Margaritaville: The Ultimate Collection

Lyrics

Everybody’s talkin’ at me
Can’t hear a word they’re sayin’
Only the echoes of my mind
People stop and stare
I can’t see their faces
Only the shadows of their eyes

Going where the sun keeps shinin’
Through the pourin’ rain
Goin’ where the weather suits my clothes
Bankin’ off of a northeast wind
And sailin’ on a summer breeze
Skippin’ over the ocean like a stone

Everybody’s talkin’ at me
Can’t hear a word they’re sayin’
Only the echoes of my mind
I won’t you leave my love behind
I won’t you leave my love behind
I won’t you leave my love behind
No, I won’t you leave my love behind
