Everybody's Talking Lyrics - Perry Como

Everybody's talkin' at me 

I don't hear a word they're sayin' 

only the echoes of my mind! 

People stop an' starin' 

I can't even see their faces 

only the shadows of their eyes! 

Goin' where the sun keeps a-shinin' 

through the pouring rain 

goin' where the weather suits my clothes! 

Bankin' off the north-east wind 

sailin' on a summer breeze 

skippin' over the ocean like a stone! 

Goin' where the sun keeps shinin' 

through the pouring rain 

goin' where the weather suits my clothes! 

Bankin' off the north-east wind 

sailin' on a summer breeze 

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! 

I won't leave my love behind 

No, I won't leave my love behind . . . 

Everybody's talkin' at me . . .
