"'Alone Together'" is a song composed by Arthur Schwartz with lyrics by Howard Dietz. It was introduced in the Broadway musical 'Flying Colors' in 1932 by Jean Sargent.

The song soon became a hit, with Leo Reisman and His Orchestra's 1932 recording (vocal by Frank Luther) being the first to reach the charts. It has become a jazz standard. The first jazz musician to record the song was Artie Shaw in 1939.
