Lyrics

[Verse 1] The one I love is standing near The one I love is everywhere [Chorus] And I can woo you, I can amuse you But there is nothing I can do to make you mine Black cloud, black cloud [Verse 2] The one I love roosts in the mind Can snap this spell or increase hell [Chorus] And I can chase you and I can catch you But there is nothing I can do to make you mine Black cloud, black cloud Oh, black cloud Oh, black cloud [Bridge] I play the game of favorites now I can, I must, I will, I do [Chorus] And I can please you or I can freeze you out But there is nothing I can do to make you mine Black cloud, black cloud, black cloud I can choke myself to please you And I can sink much lower than usual But there's nothing I can do to make you mine
