Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh It's not in the way that you came back to me It's not in the way that your love set me

This isn't sometimes, this is always This isn't maybe, this is always This is love, the real beginning of forever This isn't just mid summer madness A passing glow, a moment's gladness Yes it's love, I knew it on the night we met You tied a string around

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do It's not in the way you say you're mine, ooh It's not in the way that you came back to me It's not in the way that your love set me
