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 waps" 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've 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
We were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we almost found
Found..oooh....found...oooh..found

    Looking For An Echo

    On the sea front down at Brighton
    We used to harmonize
    Me, Griff, and Johnny, Slick and some other guys
    We were singing oldies, but they were goodies then
    And today when I play my old 45s, I remember when

    We practiced in backroom down at Old St. Louis Hall
    Crowding under the arches singing doowops to the wall
    And when we played at Richmond we'd really pack 'em in.
    And the people would travel from miles around just to hear The Razors sing

    Cause we were looking for an echo, an answer to our sound.
    The place to be in harmony,
    A place we almost found.

    And forget the world around us,
    When we sang old "Chapel Bells"
    We'd sing songs by the Moonglows, the Harptones, and the Dells
    And when we sang "Sincerely," we'd sing with all our might.
    Even though the town was sleeping, we'd break the still of the night

    We seen a lot of changes since when we first began,
    We've gone our separate ways now,
    Even sung with some old bands
    Now we've turned into oldies, but we were goodies then,
    And today when I play my old 45's, I remember when

    We were looking for an echo, an answer to our sound.
    The place to be in harmony,
    A place we almost found.

    We were looking for an echo, an answer to our sound.
    The place to be in harmony,
    A place we almost found.

    We were looking for an echo...
