The King's Parade – Silhouette lyrics

I'm going under cover, for another week again,
The face of any other, a reminder of a friend,
As time goes by I wonder why I come back here to rest,
I'm the portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again.

If I'm a diamond in the rough,
Forget it's worth if you can dig me up.

If I could hide away above,
Well, you won't find me if you don't look up.

I'm finding no reasons to say,
We can't go on this way,
I'm caught in the middle of it,
And I'm pulled away by each end.

I'm finding no reasons to say,
I'll be back again,
Hold out for me, won't cry,
Caught it over and over again.

I'm going under cover, for another week again,
The face of any other, a reminder of a friend,
As time goes by I wonder why I come back here to rest,
I'm the portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again.

The portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again.

How long are these trails I lead?
A speck in the distance, 'till secretly hoping you'll reach me.
Am I just a leaf in the breeze?
How many seasons 'till I fall out of your reach?

I'm finding no reasons to say,
We can't go on this way,
I'm caught in the middle of it,
And I'm pulled away by each end.

I'm finding no reasons to say,
I'll be back again,
Hold out for me, won't cry,
Caught it over and over again.

I'm going under cover, for another week again,
The face of any other, a reminder of a friend,
As time goes by I wonder why I come back here to rest,
I'm the portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again.

The portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again.

I'm-a fading to the deep end,
Take it easy,
Take it easy,

It's the truth that I can help you see,
I'm the memories that fall in too deep,
Take it easy,
Take it easy,

I'm-a fading to the deep,
After days they turn into weeks,
And my face is just made of dreams,
I'll keep telling myself,

I know that I keep going under cover, for another week again,
The face of any other, a reminder of a friend,
As time goes by I wonder why I come back here to rest,
I'm the portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again,

I'm going under cover, for another week again,
The face of any other, a reminder of a friend,
As time goes by I wonder why I come back here to rest,
I'm the portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again,

The portrait of a lover, I'm a silhouette again...
