The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm waiting every day I've been watching from my chimney stack

I'm waiting every week I've been hoping that they're coming back

I'm seeing all the signs and I'm learning how to bring them back

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

(Waiting for the Maninblack)

(Waiting for the Meninblack)

(Seeking for the Loveinblack)

(Seeking for the Meninblack)

(Seeking for the Meninblack)

(Seeking for the Meninblack)

I'm standing on a hill and I'm looking for the glimpse of light

I'm clutching my teddy bear if I don't I might die of fright

I'm reading all the signs and I'm learning how to bring them back

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

I'm standing on a hill

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm learning how to bring them back

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting for the Meninblack

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting (for the meninblack)

And I'm waiting
