    Lyrics:
    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
    [Guitar solo]
    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 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

    I am a christian, in 2015 I met a muslim girl and we fell in love, or so I believed, I wanted nothing more but for us to spend the rest of our lives together, I remember sending her this song, in the end religious shenanigans proved to be too much, for her especially, I think of her every time I hear this classic, wish her all the best wherever she is rn.

Was so obsessed with her for like 5 years , sent her letters and even this line " in life i know , there's lots of grief, but your love is my relief" she ended breaking my heart. So heartless how love can turn once good people into strangers. I loved you dear , let me listen to Bob Marley and heal my broken heart.

    This song is beautiful and makes me instantly tear up as it reminds me of my late dog Chubbs. I was learning the bass line for this song, Chubbs always used to sit next to me when I played my bass.
    I remember playing the bass line for Waiting In Vain and he put is head on my lap and looked up at me with joy. I miss him so much.

    I was alone in a bar in Brixton, London a year ago... and this song came on...and it hit home like it didn't before, knowing that Bob spent several years there for starters...and beyond that, it took me back to many years ago, to a time when all of my efforts to pursue a particular crush never materialized. So this one still makes me tear up. This song is equally a sad love song as it is an ambitious love song centered around the patience and optimism required to pursue real love. Thank you Bob... #timeless

    Bob Marley has brought the truth to a whole world.
    I studied his music, i lived his words and i got lifted from his songs.
    I cried, laughed and thought to them, i reflected myself upon them.
    His music changed my life and many others, if only todays people would recognize the true value of this music instead of seeing the hype and hypocritcal mass production fan items.
    Bob marley is more then the face on a grinder you bought in a coffeeshop, in times of a society lead by money wolves that heard the sheep with its freedom reducing politics, you pay the price in euros, dollars, roebels, yens, get rid of that tought, get rid of the need to own a big house, a big car, a big capitalistic dream, get rid of that it reduces your life quality, and makes you stop to dream about the earth and life as a giving. Get what you must have, but don't let it be your only desire. Life is worth much more then gold. Don't let them change you, or even rearange you.

      Stephen Daniels missing out on someone you felt was perfect is one of the worst feelings in the world. I experienced the same thing many years ago and it took me a very long time to get over it. But today I'm with an even more wonderful woman. Your time will come, this one wasn't the one. It's all part of growing up. It happens to us all at some point or another, and although you can't see it now due to the pain you're currently feeling, one day believe it or not, you'll look back at this and be happy that it happened. Rest easy brother, stay strong. Yours is out there too, you just haven't met her yet. It's not your time just yet.

    I'm gonna be honest with everyone here. I didn't grow up on Marley's music. I knew of him, and knew that he was a wonderful writer who leaves a trace of his soul in all his works but that's all there was to it as far as I was concerned. I only started listening to his music in maybe the past 5 years? But I will forever be thankful for this song. Now, like I said, I didn't grow up to his music. I was born in the Philippines in the 90's, and I first heard of Wait in Vain through some covers that gained nationwide popularity done by some of our bands, most notably MYMP and Bamboo. And I got to say, I absolutely adored Bamboo's version. It was a soulful jazz version and it really spoke to me when I was a teenager. So now, I'm here to show my great appreciation for Bob for making this song and to finally hear the original (which as I expected would be amazingly heartfelt and emotional). Thank you, Bob. Your music is a blessing.

      for you that's all, for us or for one particular group bob is not that's all, like you said, you grow up in the philippines, in the east, check the history of what happens in the west long time ago...bob is an icon, an legend, they even study his story and song bro, i understood your point by the way, but i can let you said that without responding you bro, bob is an legend, for what he fought for, the social life he stood for, the fight against racism, between black and white and for everyone else, he his mixt, father's white, mother's black, he had been shot, and the next day he came back on stage, he said that "the people who are making the world a horrible place are not taking rest, how can he do so".

    • @Strider1048
      @Strider1048 9 лет назад +3

    I was 11 years old when dad brought the album Exodus home in 1978. Id help him set up his portable discos back then and he trusted me with records. When I spun the album it blew me away. It sounded like nothing we were playing back then, (Mostly stuff like KC and the sunshine band, the Bee Gees, Michael Jacksons off the wall etc..) But Bobs music was in a unique category of its own. And this song hooked me from the moment I heard it. And Im still listening, 41 years later. Legends never die......

      @@jazminartopee7774 YES! It's a beautiful landscape puzzle where the seems are so well blended that they're invisible way above the surface. But dig deeper and there's a lot of magic fitting into all the right pieces.

    Can never go wrong with Bob Marley. If you're depressed, sad, stressed, angry or even if you're having a bad day... Listen to any of Bob Marely music and trust me, you'll forget about all your problems for the time being...

    I have played this song years ago, but today someone special sent it to me and it feels like if today was the first time I ever played it.
    Wonderful song

      Jamaican MeCrazy not all kids. I’m 16 been jammin to Bob Marley and his sons for years now, still some good rappers now but most are trash and the good ones get no views because of they don’t rap about trapping and fucking hoes all the time

    this must be one, if not the, sweetest love songs i know. it's like true love is. it's not like i'm waiting because i'm worthless or dumb, it's just that i'm in love. and i don't mind waiting, as long as my turn will come. it never fails to conquer me.

    This song reminds me of my dad. If I close my eyes I can hear him in the drivers seat of the camaro singing his heart out. I miss you every day dad. Till we meet again.
