ANNIE LENNOX - WAITING IN VAIN lyrics

rate me

From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, boy

My heart said follow through.

But I know now that I'm way down on your line

But the waiting feeling's 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

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

'Cause summer is here

And I'm still waiting there

Winter is here

I'm still waiting there

Like I said-

It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door

And still I can knock some more

Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now

For I to knock some more

You see-

In life I know

That there is lots of grief

But your love is my relief

Tears in my eyes burn

Tears in my eyes burn

While I'm waitin'

While I'm waitin' for my turn

You see-

(*Repeat)

Like I said-

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 been three years since I'm knocking on your door

And still I can knock some more

Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now

Like I said-

Tears in my eyes burn

Tears in my eyes burn

While I'm waiting

While I'm waiting for my turn

You see-

Ooh, boy, ooh, boy, is it crazy? Look, I wanna know now

For I to knock some more

In life I know there is lots of grief

But your love is my relief
