Chorus 1 (same rhythm):
I don't wanna wait,
In vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait,
In vain for your love.
Verse 1:
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,
'Cos 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... soon.
Chorus 2:
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.
Bridge 1:
'Cos if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there.
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.
Solo:
(x4)
Verse 3:
...Amaj7
(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?...
Yah 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...
Chorus 2:
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... Ooh!
I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain.
(Noo...) I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain.
(Noo...) 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 don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna
I don't wanna wait in vain.
(Start Fading)
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...
