Silhouettes:The Diamonds.
#10 on MERCURY Records in 1957.
INTRO:
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, hut-hut..
ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah, hut-hut..
#1.
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.
#2.
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.
(BRIDGE:)
Silhouettes (silhouettes)..silhouettes (silhouettes)..
silhouettes (silhouettes)..ty-oh.
Silhouettes (silhouettes)..silhouettes (silhouettes)..
silhouettes (silhouettes)..ty-oh.
(INTERLUDE:)
#3.
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.
#4.
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.
OUTRO:
Silhouettes (silhouettes)..silhouettes (silhouettes)..
silhouettes (silhouettes)..ty-oh.
Silhouettes (silhouettes)..silhouettes (silhouettes)..
silhouettes (silhouettes)..ty-oh.
Two silhouettes....on the....shade...two silhouettes!
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
