Story So Far, The - Waiting In Vain Lyrics






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

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

‘Cause if summer is here
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 I still can knock some more
Oh girl, oh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more

You 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 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

    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, 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 wait in vain.
    No, I don't wanna (I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna -

  64. H.... ....

    Damn I didn't think this was really a Bob Marley cover. Good for them

  65. S.... U....

    I love this cover. TSSF can play anything.

  66. M.... ....

    This is so rad. Just goes to show you how much talent these guys have. It's awesome how they can take a reggae song by Bob Marley, being a hardcore pop punk/alternative band, put their own acoustic twist on it and actually make it sound good for a cover song. Props to them.

  67. J.... P....

    This is garbage.

  68. C.... V....

    best acoustic song from their ep

  69. T.... O....

    This is fucking beautiful.

  70. t.... ....

    parker sounds better when hes hella angry sorry not sorry

    t.... ....

    totally agree hahaha

    t.... ....

    FUCK AN APOLOGY IM NOT SORRY FOR ANYTHING

  71. V.... ....

    Damn this is good.

  72. A.... T....

    Fuck, his voice does things to me

  73. w.... ....

    that was a good Bob Marley cover by them

  74. S.... B....

    this is beyond beautiful. I could listen to Parkers voice all day

  75. E.... W....

    its so chill i love it 

  76. m.... s....

    it's pretty good though

    m.... s....

    Even Nagisa approve of this song :D!

  77. D.... P....

    This is so on point in my life right now. I know the song existed already, but damn. This is just so right and it hurts. I love TSSF

    D.... P....

    This is a cover

  78. N.... ....

    im diggin it. he aint no bob marley but its awesome to hear them cover this.

  79. P.... M....

    Very happy with this

  80. F.... K....

    I get the chillest vibes from this song

  81. K.... R....

    Sounds wonderful, drums are on point

  82. T.... ....

    Holy shit I love this song! I cant believe they made a cover for this! :P

  83. D.... W....

    Holy shit, this is bad

  84. M.... T....

    This isn't bad, but I think navy blue is the best song on this album.

    M.... T....

    Navy Blue gave me some serious feels. I replayed that so many times when I first heard it

    M.... T....

    Meet too, that is my favorite acoustic track by The Story So Far next to Clairvoyant.

    M.... T....

    Nice, yeah, they didn't have many acoustics before then. Maybe Placeholder counts?

    M.... T....

    well this is a cover.....

  85. N.... ....

    insta-fav

  86. m.... ....

    Kevin Geyer can shred, damn.

  87. y.... ....

    ...really?

  88. J.... T....

    Fucking awesome. Props to you TSSF. Your variety in sound is what keeps me listening to you guys. You always have something "fresh"  and extremely progressive. Parkers voice has progressed an incredible amount since you guys have started. I still remember the day when I first heard you guys, I think it was right after the release of mount diablo. You guys have had such a huge impact on my life and my dream of one day starting my own band. Thank You, keep making amazing shit. Peace.

    J.... T....

    \I wrote "after the release of mount diablo" I meant "under soil and dirt" cannabis.....

    J.... T....

    Lmao this isnt even their song its a cover of Bob Marley and The Wailers

    J.... T....

    The lyrics were written by Bob Marley. However TSSF wrote their own music to it and its awesome. Im sure Bob is up there in heaven jamming to this with a spliff.

    J.... T....

    @LifeWithLou13 

    J.... T....

    Are you freaking kidding me? this is a cover in ever sense even the haunting melody in the back is there on Bob's version. It's a great cover. That is all.

  89. B.... W....

    Such a great cover. Good vibes

    B.... W....

    @Brian White 420

  90. K.... J....

    I really love this.

  91. N.... ....

    oh yikes. This is pretty disappointing.

    N.... ....

    @***** He never said there was anything wrong with him expressing his opinion, he just fired back with an opinion of his own.

    N.... ....

    @Nick Steiner i think the reason shows are so shitty are from people overreacting.
    (hint, you're overreacting)

    N.... ....

    +Nick Ohhhhh looks like somebody got triggered a year ago.

    N.... ....

    It's pure it's not dubbed it's all just his voice no edits that's what I love so much about it

  92. T.... ....

    positive energy man

  93. T.... M....

    OMFG YES
