(Fred Neil)



Everybody's talkin' at me

Can't hear a word they're sayin'

Only the echoes of my mind

People stoppin', starin'

I can't see their faces

Only the shadows of their eyes

Goin' where the sun keeps shinin'

In the pouring rain

Goin' where the weather suits my clothes

Banking off a northeast wind

Sailin' on a summer's breeze

Skipping 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

People stoppin', starin'

I can't see their faces

Only the shadows of their eyes

Goin' where the sun keeps shinin'

In the pouring rain

Goin' where the weather suits my clothes

Banking off a northeast wind

Sailin' on a summer's breeze

Skipping over the ocean

Like a stone



And you know I'll never leave my love behind
