Gilberto Gil Waiting in Vain song lyrics

I dont wanna wait in vain for your love (2x)

From the very first time I blessed my eyes on you, girl

My heart says follow through

But I know now that Im way down on your line

And the waiting feel is fine

So dont treat me like a puppet on a string

Cause I know how to do my thing

Dont talk to me as if you think Im dumb

I wanna know when youre gonna come?

I dont wanna wait in vain for your love (3x)

Cause summer is here

Im still waiting there

Winter is here

And Im still waiting there

Like I said

Its been three years since Im knocking on your door

And I still can knock some more

Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feaseble?

I wanna know now

For I to knock some more

In life I know

Theres lots of grief

But your love is my relief

Tears in my eyes burn

Tears in my eyes burn

While Im waiting

While Im waiting for my turn

I dont wanna wait in vain for your love...
