We did not sing this in the group I had in highschool, called "Lavender." But listening to it today on the radio, I see that we should have. Perfect for us. This is the sort of harmonising I do standing around in the back of the church on Sunday.
I found the lyrics in a group songbook as a teen without ever having heard the song, and thought enough of them to seek out a version with the melody and chords (which, pre-internet I'm not really sure how I managed - probably looking through fake-books in bookstores.) Thought it would be a good party-piece, but whenever I pulled out the guitar and sang it for girlfriends they didn't seem to like it.
They were good.
