Perry Como In Person at the International Hotel, Las Vegas

 

Everybody's Talking

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 . . .
