We three, we're all alone

Living in a mem-o-ry

My echo, my shadow, and me

We three, we're not a crowd

We're not even company

My echo, my shadow, and me

What good is the moonlight

The silvery moonlight that shines above?

I walk with my shadow

I talk with my echo

But where is the one I love? Tommy Dorsey - We Three - http://motolyrics.com/tommy-dorsey/we-three-lyrics.html

We three, we'll wait for you

Even till eter-ni-ty

My echo, my shadow, and me

SPOKEN: "We three we're all alone. Seems like we're livin' in a memory. That's my

echo my shadow and me. We three we ain't no crowd. Fact is we ain't even

company. That's my echo my shadow and me. You know I been wonderin'-what good is the

moonlight that silvery moonlight that shines way, way up above? Yeah, I walk with my

shadow, I talk with my echo, but where is that gal that I love?"

We three, we'll wait for you

Even till eter-ni-ty

My echo, my shadow, and me
