Lyrics

Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
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
Wonder why I'm not the guy, whose silhouette's on the shade
(I couldn't hide the tears in my eyes)
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore
Let me in or else I'll be down your door
Then two strangers who had been, two silhouettes on the shade
(You said to my child, "I'm on the wrong block")
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
Rushed down to your house with weight on my feet
Hug you like I never loved you, my sweet
Now that you and I would be, two silhouettes on the shade
(Oh, yeah, it's two silhouettes on the shade)
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
Silhouettes, silhouettes, silhouettes whoo
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
Dial you
I'm sorry, yes I am (dial you)
I made a mistake, yes I did (dial you)
I was wrong, so wrong (dial you)
So wrong, so wrong, wrong (dial you)
But I'm a sad little child (dial you)
I'm on the wrong block (dial you)
Forgive me, baby please, baby please (dial you)
Please, please forgive me
Dial you
Dial you (I cry, I cry)
Dial you
Dial you
