You know that your time has come
Though you were on the right track
And all that is said and done
You know there is no turning back
You're waiting for the man in black
waiting for the man in black
There is no turning back, from the man in black

Now that the verdict is clear
There is nothing more you can do
And maybe you will live a year
Or maybe a day or two
waiting for the man in black
waiting for the man in black
There is no turning back, from the man in black

All night long and your world is black
You feel like you're all alone
Nobody's there to save your soul
You've got to face this on your own

So all you can do is wait
Waiting for the days to go by
Waiting for the end to come
When we can put down our heads and cry
waiting for the man in black
waiting for the man in black
There is no turning back, from the man in black
There is no turning back, from the man in black
