"Waiting In Vain" lyrics

"Waiting In Vain"
(originally by Bob Marley and the Wailers)

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

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
My heart says, "Follow through."
And I know now, that I'm way down on your line
But the waiting's feeling 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 wanna come

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

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

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

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)
It's my love that you're running from
(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)
It's my love you're running from
(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)
It's my love you're running from
(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)
It's my love you're running from
(I don't wanna wait in vain)
