歌词
[Verse 1]
Everybody's talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
Only the echoes of my mind
People stop, staring at me
I don't even see their faces
Only the shadow of their eye
[Verse 2]
Going where the sun keeps a shining
Through the pouring rain
Going where the weather suits my clothes
Banking off the northeast wind sailing on a summer breeze
Skipping over the ocean like a stone
[Verse 3]
Why, why, why, why-high, high-high-high
Why, uh-high, uh-high
Why, uh-high, uh, uh, uh-uh
Why-uh-high, why-uh-high-high
Why, uh-high, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh
Why, uh-high, uh, uh, uh-uh, uh
[Verse 4]
I said everybody's keeps talking at me
I don't hear a word they're saying
I only hear the echoes of my mind
People stop staring at me
I don't even see their faces
Only the shadow of their eye
[Verse 5]
Skipping, skipping, skipping, skip, skip
Over the ocean
Like a stone
[Verse 6]
Hey, I said a why, why-uh-high high
High-high-high, uh, uh, uh-uh
Why, uh-high, uh, uh, uh-uh
Why, why, uh-huh-huh, uh, uh, uh-uh
