ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, hut-hut
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah,
hut-hut
Took a walk and passed your house (late last night)
All the shades
were pulled and drawn (way down tight)
From within, a dim light cast two silhouettes on the
shade
Oh, what a lovely couple they ma-ade
Put his arms around your waist
(held you tight)
Kisses I could almost taste (in the night)
Wonder why I'm not the guy
*whose silhouette's* on the shade
I couldn't hide the tears in my eye-eyes
Silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes)
ty-oh, oh-oh
Silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes),
ty-oh,
oh-oh
Lost control and rang your bell (I was sore)
Let me in or else
I'll beat (down your door)
When two strangers who had been two silhouettes on the shade
Said to my shock "you're on the wrong blo-ock"
Rushed down to your house with
wings (on my feet)
Loved you like I never loved (you my sweet)
Vowed that you and I
would be two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days, two silhouettes on the sha-ade
Silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes)
ty-oh,
oh-oh
Silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes) silhouettes (silhouettes),
ty-oh, oh-oh
Two silhouettes on the shade
Silhouettes!
TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES
1. Backups join with lead on words in (parentheses)
2.: I believe
the lead singer screwed up here. On "The Diamonds
Collection"-Stardust CD-1010, he clearly
says "two silhouettes" rather than "whose
silhouette's." The latter is, of course, true
compared to the Rays' original | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
