Back when I was eighteen Life gave me nothing but a sweet, sweet kiss You give a man ten more years You can see what it does to him I took a bus to the Great Salt Lake And moved South to a city of sin There was a dark, dark cloud hanging overhead I met my baby in a checkout line We were laughing the cashier's shoes She asked me if I wasn't going nowhere I'll go nowhere if it's going with you We got married on a rainy Sunday I got nervous and lost my cool There was a bright, bright cloud hanging over you I hope my lover is pure I show my very best There's no good reason why the things I've got are the things I'm supposed to give There was a bright, bright cloud hanging overhead We bought a house in the downtown district I was singing to pay the bills You danced naked on our kitchen table We were wild, young, and ready to live I swore that you were the only girl That I could ever be crazy for Yes I said love is just another word and I'll use for it I hope my lover is pure I show my very best There's no good reason why the things I've got are the things I'm supposed to give There was a dark, dark cloud hanging overhead I woke up nine years later To a woman that I don't even see I buy her presents in the snowy season We'll make love every other week I call my parents on the weekends That I've been drinking a bit too hard Now there's a dark, dark cloud hanging in my heart I hope my lover is pure I show my very best There's no good reason why the things I've got are the things I'm supposed to give There is a dark, dark cloud hanging overhead There is a dark, dark cloud hanging overhead
