Standard (EADGBE)
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 through.
But I know now that I'm way down on your line,
But the waiting 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,
Bridge
'cause if summer is here,
I'm still waiting there;
Winter is here,
And I'm still waiting there.
(Same progression )
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,
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 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 wait in vain.
It's your love that I'm waiting on
It's my love that you're running from.
