Hold The Line
The Disco Boys feat. Toto Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's not in the way that you hold me
It's not in the way you say you care
It's not in the way you've been treating my friends
It's not in the way that you stayed 'till the end
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, woah woah woah
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, woah woah woah

It's not in the words that you told me, girl
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 free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, woah woah woah
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, woah woah woah

It's not in the words that you told me
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 free
It's not in the way you look or the things that you say that you'll do

Hold the line, love isn't always on time, woah woah woah
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time

Hold the line, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always, love isn't always on time
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time
Love isn't always on time




Love isn't always on time
Woah woah woah

Overall Meaning

The song Hold The Line explores the idea that love isn't always easy, and that it requires effort and commitment to make it work. The singer explains that it's not just the physical actions or words that make a relationship strong, but also the way that two people interact with each other. The chorus emphasizes this message, with the repeated refrain "Hold the line, love isn't always on time" driving home the idea that relationships require patience and perseverance.


The verse lyrics are specifically aimed at dispelling common myths about what makes a relationship successful. For example, the first verse notes that it's not just about physical touch or words of affection, but also about how the partner treats the people around them. Similarly, the second verse emphasizes that it's not just about the words that someone says, but also about their actions.


Overall, the song is a reminder that love is a complex and difficult thing, but that with effort and commitment, it can be made to work.

nice to be a part of it boys! ;)

The original was good. This is good in a different way. It should honor Toto that their song is not only remembered but redone. It could have just been a forgotten classic that everyone has heard about 33 million too many times already.
