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 his arms around your waist, held you tight
Kisses I could almost taste in the night
I wondered why I’m not the guy whose silhouette’s on the shade
I couldn’t hide those tears in my eyes

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, 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 block’

Ran down to your house with wings on my feet
Loved you like I’d 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 shade

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes, oh
Two silhouettes on the shade
