BLACK CLOUD
(Morrissey/Boorer)

''Can you you see the black cloud?''

The one I love 
is standing near 
the one I love 
is everywhere 
and I can woo you 
I can amuse you 
but there is nothing I can do to make you mine 
black cloud, black cloud 

The one I love 
roosts in the mind 
can snap this spell 
or, increase [bad word] 
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 

I play the game of Favorites now 
I can I must I will I do 
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.
