Everybody's Talkin' (from "Midnight Cowboy") Songtext
von Harry Nilsson

Everybody′s talkin' at me
I don′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

I′m goin' where the sun keeps shinin′
Through the pourin' rain
Goin′ where the weather suits my clothes

Bankin' off of the northeast winds
Sailin' on a summer breeze
And skippin′ over the ocean like a stone


Wah, wah, wah-wah-wah
Wah-wah, wah-wah, wah-wah-wah
Wahhh

I′m goin' where the sun keeps shinin′
Through the pourin' rain
Goin′ where the weather suits my clothes

Bankin' off of the northeast winds
Sailin′ on a summer breeze
And 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 let you leave my love behind
No, I won′t let you leave
Wah, wah, ah
I won't let you leave my love behind
