The Diamonds
Written by Frank C. Slay Jr. and Bob Crewe
Peaked at # 10 in 1957

Another version, by Steve Gibson and The Redcaps, managed only # 63
Re-made by Herman`s Hermits to # 5 in 1965
Took a walk and passed your house (late last night)
All the shades were pulled and drawn (way down tight)
From within, a dim light cast two silhouettes on the shade
Oh, what a lovely couple they ma-ade
Put his arms around your waist (held you tight)
Kisses I could almost taste (in the night)
Wonder why I`m not the guy *whose silhouette`s* on the shade
I couldn`t hide the tears in my eye-eyes
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 blo-ock`
Rushed down to your house with wings (on my feet)
Loved you like I 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 sha-ade
TRANSCRIBER`S NOTES
1. Backups join with lead on words in (parentheses)
2.: I believe the lead singer screwed up here. On `The Diamonds
Collection`-Stardust CD-1010, he clearly says `two silhouettes` rather than `whose
silhouette`s.` The latter is, of course, true compared to the Rays` original Send " Silhouettesd" Ringtone to your Cell
