THE RONETTES
"Silhouettes"
(Bob Crewe / Frank Slay)

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh

Took a walk and passed your house
Late last night
All the shades were pulled and drawn
Way down tight
From within the dim light cast
Two silhouettes on the shade
Oh what a lovely couple they made

Put her arms around your waist
Held you tight
Kisses I could almost taste
In the night
Wondered why it wasn't I
Whose silhouette's on the shade
I couldn't hide the tears in my eyes

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh

Swallowed all my pride and knocked
On your door
Figured all is fair in both
Love and war
When two strangers who had been
Two silhouettes on the shade
Said to myself you're on the wrong block

Rushed down to your house with wings
On my feet
Loved you like I've never loved
You, my sweet
Now that you and I would be
Two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days
Two silhouettes on the shade

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh (You and me, babe: two silhouettes)
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
