Lyrics
Ah ah ah ah ah
Expressing an emotional reaction or realization.
Ah ah ah ah ah
Continuation of emotional expression or realization.
Took a walk and passed your house late last night
Describing a late-night stroll past someone's house.
All the shades were pulled and drawn way down tight
Noticing that the window coverings were closed tightly.
From within, the dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade
Seeing two shadows on the window shade created by a dim light.
Oh, what a lovely couple they made
Admiring the apparent happiness of a couple in those silhouettes.
Put his arms around your waist, held you tight
Imagining the intimate embrace of the couple.
Kisses I could almost taste in the night
Sensing the nearness of romantic kisses.
Wondered why I'm not the guy whose silhouette's on the shade
Reflecting on not being the person in the silhouettes.
I couldn't hide the tears in my eyes
Revealing the inability to hide the emotional pain.
Silhouette's (silhouette's) silhouette's (silhouette's)
Repetition of the word "silhouette's" with musical emphasis.
Silhouette's (silhouette's) ty oh, oh oh
-Silhouette's (silhouette's) silhouette's (silhouette's)
-Silhouette's (silhouette's) ty oh, oh oh
-Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore
Describing a loss of emotional control and a confrontation.
Let me in or else I'll beat down your door
Threatening to break down the door if not allowed in.
When two strangers who have been two silhouettes on the shade
Discovering that the silhouettes belong to strangers.
Said to my shock, "You're on the wrong block"
Learning that he is in the wrong location.
La la la la, la la la
Repetition of "la" as a musical interlude or transition.
Rushed out to your house with wings on my feet
Rushing to the house with great speed.
Loved you like I'd never loved you, my sweet
Expressing intense love and devotion.
Vowed that you and I would be two silhouettes on the shade
Making a commitment to be a happy couple in silhouettes.
All of our days, two silhouettes on the shade
Desiring a lasting relationship as silhouettes.
Silhouette's (silhouette's) silhouette's (silhouette's)
Repetition of the word "silhouette's" with musical emphasis.
Silhouette's (silhouette's) ty oh, oh oh
-Silhouette's (silhouette's) silhouette's (silhouette's)
-Silhouette's (silhouette's) ty oh, oh oh
-Two silhouettes on the shade
Reiteration of the desire to be two silhouettes on the shade.
