- The Waiting Lyrics / with translationsOh baby, don't it feel like heaven right now?
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream?
Yeah, I've never known nothin' quite like this
Don't it feel like tonight might never be again?
Baby, we know better than to try and pretend
Honey no one could have ever told me 'bout this
I said
Yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The waiting is the hardest part
Everyday you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Well yeah, I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was 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 wanna live now
I said
Yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day 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 baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let 'em kill you baby, don't let 'em get to you
I'll be your breathin' heart, I'll be your cryin' fool
Don't let this go to far, don't let it get to you
Yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The waiting is the hardest part
Every day get one more yard
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
You know, waiting is the hardest part
Oh ohh ohh
Is the hardest part
Oh ohh ohh
Is the hardest part
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream?
Yeah, I've never known nothin' quite like this
Don't it feel like tonight might never be again?
Baby, we know better than to try and pretend
Honey no one could have ever told me 'bout this
I said
Yeah yeah
(Yeah yeah)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
The waiting is the hardest part
Everyday you see one more card
You take it on faith, you take it to the heart
The waiting is the hardest part
Well yeah, I might have chased a couple of women around
All it ever got me was 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 wanna live now
Yeah yeah

The waiting is the hardest part
Every day 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 baby, don't let it get to you
Don't let 'em kill you baby, don't let 'em get to you
I'll be your breathin' heart, I'll be your cryin' fool
