I can't find the lyrics to "We Should be Together." I believe it came out in the 50's and could have been done by the Chordettes, but it was done by a female group. Some of the lyrics go: "we should be together like the rivers that are flowing to the ocean, we should be together like...., melted together like the sand and the sea, the new fallen snow and the leaves on the trees, darling, everything's together but you and me...."

I can't remember all of it...

Help! I can't get it out of my mind!

Darn, I was thinking Jefferson Airplane, but that's "We Can Be Together"....

I searched my usual sources, and came up with nothing.

The song was a hit by the Chordettes, yes. In 1959.
It has nothing to do with Jefferson Airplane, no.
In 1959 it was also done by The BROWNS (well known by their mega-hit The Three Bells).
In Germany it was a hit by Lolita (title "Treu will ich dir bleiben", or something like that). Also 1959.

WE SHOULD BE TOGETHER as sung by THE BELLS

(Why why why can't we be together why why why can't we be together)
We should be together like the rivers that are aiming to the ocean
We should be together like the clouds that are floating in the heaven
Melted together like sand and the sea rocks and the earth and wind and the breeze
Darling everything's together but you and me
(Why why why can't we be together why why why can't we be together)

We should be together like the gold that veins in the mountain
We should be together like the grass that grows in the valley
Melted together like the surf and the sea
And new fallen snow and the leaves from the trees
Darling everything's together but you and me
(Why why why can't we be together tell me why why why can't we be together)

Love is the only thing neath the sun that can make two lovers into one
Darling I'll be waiting until it's done
(Why why why can't we be together why why why can't we be together)
