LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
KENNY VANCE & THE PLANOTONES

At Erasmus Hall high school we used to harmonize
Me and Frankie and Adam and two Italian guys
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 doo 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'd almost found ooh

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
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've tried to harmonise
Now they've turned into oldies but they were newies then
And today when I play those old 45's I remember when

'Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ...
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost ...
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we'd almost found

Wooh ooh ooh oh
You are an angel
Angel divine
You're sent from heaven
You're really mine
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh, oh my darling
Lorraine

Oh what a night
This is the night
This is the night
This is the night for love
