Waiting in Vain Songtext
von Bob Marley & The Wailers

I don′t wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

From the very first time I placed my eyes on you, girl
My heart says follow through
But I know, now, that I′m way down on your line
But the waitin' feel is fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
′Cause I know how to do my thing
Don′t talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you′re gonna come

See, I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don′t wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

′Cause if summer is here
I'm still waiting there
Winter is here
And I'm still waiting there


Like I said
It′s been three years since I′m knockin' on your door
And I still can knock some more
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more

Ya see, in life I know there′s lots of grief
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting, while I′m waiting for my turn
See!

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don′t wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

I don′t wanna wait in vain for your love, oh!
I don′t wanna, I don't wanna, I don′t wanna, I don't wanna
I don′t wanna wait in vain, no
I don't wanna, I don′t wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don′t wanna wait in vain, no
I don′t wanna, I don't wanna, I don′t wanna, I don't wanna
I don′t wanna wait in vain


No no no, I, no I (I don't wanna wait in vain)
It′s your love that I'm waiting on
It's my love that you′re running from
It′s your love that I'm waiting on
It′s my love that you're running from
