[Repeat: x7]
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love 

From the very first time I blessed my eyes on you, girl
My heart says â??follow throughâ??
But I know now that I'm way down on your line
And the waiting feel is 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're gonna come?

[Repeat: x3]
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love 

'Cause 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 knocking 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 

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...
