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.

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 Jah 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.

Cette chanson évoque le sentiment de désespoir et d'attente en amour. Le protagoniste exprime son impatience face à une relation où il se sent négligé, désirant ardemment savoir quand l'autre personne viendra vers lui. Malgré la douleur de l'attente, il tente de garder espoir et souligne combien son affection lui apporte de réconfort dans sa vie. Le contexte est celui d'un amour non réciproque ou en attente, où l'on ressent une forte solitude malgré des sentiments profonds. Les saisons passent, symbolisant à la fois le temps qui s'écoule et l'angoisse de cet amour non partagé. L'artiste évoque ainsi la difficulté des relations humaines, mêlant l'espoir et la souffrance d'un cœur qui aspire à l'amour.
