Everybody's Talking

(앨범: Just As I Am - 1971)

Everybody's talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
People stop, staring at me
I don't even see their faces
Only the shadow of their eyes

Going where the sun keeps a-shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Banking off the northeast wind
Sailing on a summer breeze
Skipping over the ocean like a stone

Why, why, why, why?
Why, why, why, why?

I said, everybody keeps talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying, now
Only the echoes of my mind
People stop, staring at me
I don't even see their faces
Only the shadow of their eyes

Skipping, skipping, skipping, skip, skip
Over the ocean like a stone

I said, why, why, why?
Why, why?
