"The Waiting" lyrics

The Waiting

Oh, baby, don't it feel
Like heaven right now?
Don't it feel like something
From a dream?
Hey, I've never known
Nothing quite like this
Don't it feel like the night
Might never be again?
Baby, we know better
Than to try and pretend
Honey, no one could've ever
Told me about this
I said yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

The waiting
Is the hardest part
Every day
You see one more card
You take it on faith
You take it to the heart
The waiting
Is the hardest part

Well, yeah
You might've chased
A couple women around
Oh, all it ever got you is down
Yeah, then there were those
That made me feel good
But never as good
As I feel right now
Baby, you're the only one
That's ever known how
To make me wanna live
Like I want to live now
I said yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

The waiting
Is the hardest part
Every day
You get one more yard
You take it on faith
You take it to the heart
The waiting
Is the hardest part

Oh
Don't let it kill you, babe
Don't let it get to you
Don't let it kill you, babe
Don't let it get to you

I'll be your bleeding heart
I'll be your crying fool
Don't let this go too far
Don't let it get to you

I said yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

The waiting
Is the hardest part
Every day
You get one more yard
You take it on faith
You take it to the heart
The waiting
Is the hardest part

The waiting
Is the hardest
Part

It's the hardest part
It's the hardest part
