Formed in 1976, the band originally comprised Tom Petty (lead singer, guitar), Mike Campbell (lead guitarist), Ron Blair (bass guitar), Stan Lynch (drums), and Benmont Tench (keyboards). The band largely maintained this lineup, with a few exceptions. In 1981, Blair, tired of the touring lifestyle, left the band. His replacement, Howie Epstein, stayed with the band for the next two decades. In 1991, Scott Thurston joined the band as a multi-instrumentalist—mostly on rhythm guitar and second keyboards.

Oh baby don't it feel like heaven right now 
Don't it feel like somethin' from a dream 
Yeah I've never known nothing quite like this 
Don't it feel like tonight might never be again 
Baby, we know better than to try and pretend 
Baby no one could have ever told me 'bout this, yeah, yeah, 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 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 want to live like I want to live now, yeah,yeah, 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 

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
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
Yeah, the waiting is the hardest part
Ooh
Is the hardest part
Ooh
Is the hardest part
