Lyrics

I have always enjoyed the song "Silhouettes" written by Bob Crewe and originally performed by

The Rays. There have been many covers by other artists such as The Diamonds, The Fleetwoods, The Lettermen, The Tokens, Cliff Richard & The Shadows, The Vogues & The Four Seasons.

It also featured in the opening section of the Broadway Production of "Jersey Boys".

This is my attempt at a cover of this song. Hope you enjoy it

I passed by your place

just the other night

Saw your shadow dance

in the hallway light

I thought I saw love

in the shape of two

But the shapes were lies

that I thought were you

Outlines on the shade,

told me I was wrong

Figures near the glass

lingered all night long

I thought I was through,

you were with someone new

But the truth came clear

when I talked to you

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Hi.. ohh.. woah.. woah

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Silhouettes.. (silhouettes)

Hi.. ohh.. ohh

Woahhh.. woah... woah... woahh—

Woahhh.. woah... woah... woahh—

I turned from your door

with a sinking heart

Thought I'd lost your love,

thought we'd drift apart

But you ran right out

with a crying face

Said the forms I saw

were a friend's embrace

Outlines on the shade,

made me lose my way

Thought you let me go,

thought you couldn’t stay

But the shade deceived,

now I do believe

That it’s still just us

in the love we weave

Silhouettes, no more

Just your love I’m sure
