Lyrics[]
We three, we're all alone, living in a memory
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
We three, we'll wait for you
Even till eternity
My echo, my shadow and me
[Spoken word]
We three, we're all alone, seems like we're living in a memory
That's my echo, my shadow and me
We three, we ain't no crowd – fact is, we ain't even a company
That's my echo, my shadow, and me
You know, I've been wondering
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 girl that I love
We three, we'll wait for you
Even till eternity
My echo, my shadow and me
