There's a black cloud over this house

That's been around for 3 years now

There's a thunderstorm inside

And it won't go away



That's why they call it a union

That's why they call it a union

So both of you please forgive me tonight

That's why they call it a union

So please forgive me tonight



I remember him turning around

He said, "Son, I'll be leaving now,

I can't be the person that you want me to be

And then she said, "So things aew finally ending now,

I knew you'd be walking out,

You can't be the person that you want me to be."



3 years of all the arguments

3 years of all this silence

Has been enough to last me a lifetime

3 years of all the arguments

3 years of all this pain



That's why they call it a union

That's why they call it a union

So both of you please forgive me tonight

That's why they call it a union

So please forgive me tonight



I can't look at the pictures anymore

Because i know how it's run its course

And i know hoe the story ends

I know it ends



There's a black cloud over this house

That's been around for 3 years now

There's a thunderstorm inside,

And another fight tonight



There's a black cloud over this house

That's been around for 3 years now

There's a thunderstorm tonight

And it won't go away, no it won't go away
