English Lyric: Waiting In Vain

- Album: Exodus
- Singer: Bob Marley

From the album Exodus

1, 2, 3:

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 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.
