Looking for an Echo

At daydream junior highschool We used to harmonise Me and Frankie and Jimmy And some Italian guy We were singing oldies But they were newies then And today when I play my old 45's I remember when We practiced in a subway, In a lobby or a hall Crowded in a doorway Singing "do wops" to the wall And if we went to a party And they wouldn't let us sing We'd lock ourselves in the bathroom And nobody could get in 'Cause we were looking for an echo An answer to our sound A place to be in harmony A place we almost found Ooooh And the girls would gather 'round us And our heads would really swell We'd sing songs by the moonglows, The Harptones and the Dells And when we sang sincerely, We really sang it high And even though it was falsetto We almost reached the sky We've sung a lot of changes Since 1955 And a lot of bad arrangements We tried to harmonise Now they've turned into oldies But they were newies then And today when I play my old 45's I remember when We were looking for an echo An answer to our sound A place to be in harmony A place we almost found Oooh We were looking for an echo An answer to our sound A place to be in harmony A place we almost found Oooh... found... Oooh.found Oooh.found Oooh.found
