"That's Why They Call It A Union" lyrics

There's a black cloud over this house
That's been around for three years now
There's a thunderstorm inside
And it won't go away
No, it won't go away
That's why they call it "a union"
That's why they call it "a union"
That's why they call it "a union"

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, "Some things are finally ending now."
Yeah, I knew you'd be walking out
You can't be the person that you want me to be
Want me to be

Three years of all the arguments
Three years of all this silence
Has been enough to last me a lifetime
Three years of all the arguments
Three 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 remember him turning around
He said, "Son, I'll be leaving now."
You can't be the person that I want you to be
Want you to be

Three years of all the arguments
Three years of all this silence
Has been enough to last me a lifetime
Three years of all the arguments
Three 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 how the story ends
I know it ends

There's a black cloud over this house
That's been around for three years now
There's a thunderstorm inside
There's another fight tonight
There's a black cloud over this house
That's been around for three years now
There's a thunderstorm tonight
And it won't go away
No, 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
So please forgive me tonight
So please forgive me, goodnight
