Strum
D-DU-UDU
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.
 Wondered why  I'm not the guy,  whose silhouette's  on the shade..
 I couldn't hide,  the tears in  my eyes.
Ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh...
ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh..
 (INTERLUDE:)
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."
Rushed  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.
Ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh...
ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh,  ahh, ahh..(Fade.)
 A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
