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 rest my eyes on you, girl,
|
My heart says follow t'rough.
|
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 I have to do my thing.
|
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
|
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
|
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.
|
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.
