Bill Withers — Everybody’s Talkin’

[Chorus] Everybody's talkin' at me I don't hear a word they're sayin' Only the echoes of my mind People stop, starin' at me I don't even see their faces Only the shadow of their eyes [Verse 1] Going where the sun keeps a-shinin' Through the pourin' rain Goin' where the weather suits my clothes Bankin' off the northeast wind Sailin' on a summer breeze Skippin' over the ocean like a stone [Refrain] Why? Why, why, why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? [Verse 2] I said, everybody keeps talkin' at me I don't hear a word they're sayin', now Only the echoes of my mind People stop, starin' at me I don't even see their faces Only the shadow of their eyes [Bridge] Skippin', skippin', skippin', skip, skip Over the ocean like a stone [Outro] Hey, I said, why, why? Why? Why, why?
