Waiting in Vain Songtext
Since the very first time I placed my eyes on you,
My heart says follow t′rough.
But I know now that I'm way down on your line,
But this waitin′ t'ing 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 if 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 the summer is here
And if the winter is here
I wanna be with you near
Is this in vain or sincere?
Should I be stayin′ or goin'
Should I be askin' or knowin′
I need to flee or pursuin′
I need to be and I knew it
So you see
Like I said:
It's been t′ree years since I'm knockin′ on your door,
And I still can knock some more
Ooh boy, ooh boy, 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.
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 - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (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 - I don't wanna - I don′t wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
It′s your love that I′m waiting on (I don't wanna - I don′t wanna -
I don't wanna - I don′t wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It′s me love that you're running from.
It's Jah love that I′m waiting on (I don′t wanna - I don't wanna -
I don′t wanna - I don't wanna - I don′t wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you′re running from.
My heart says follow t′rough.
But I know now that I'm way down on your line,
But this waitin′ t'ing 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 if 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 the summer is here
And if the winter is here
I wanna be with you near
Is this in vain or sincere?
Should I be stayin′ or goin'
Should I be askin' or knowin′
I need to flee or pursuin′
I need to be and I knew it
So you see
Like I said:

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.
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 - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
No I - no I (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 - I don't wanna - I don′t wanna -
I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain) -
It′s your love that I′m waiting on (I don't wanna - I don′t wanna -
I don't wanna - I don′t wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain);
It′s me love that you're running from.
It's Jah love that I′m waiting on (I don′t wanna - I don't wanna -
I don′t wanna - I don't wanna - I don′t wanna wait in vain);
It's me love that you′re running from.
