This week I'm looking at Hold The Line by Toto. This is such a great song, total 80's and I love how it kinda has that rock feel and also makes you think. The line love isn't always on time- I remember thinking "how true" a few times lol. I'm sure many of us can relate to this one.
So what do you think?
Lyrics
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 til 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
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
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 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'll say that you'll do
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
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 you came back to me
It's not in the way that your love set me free
It's not in the way that you look or the things that you say you'll do
Hold the line, love isn't always on time
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, oh oh oh
I wasn't sure I had heard this song before until I started it up LOL! How funny, I wonder why I didn't recognize the lyrics. It must be one of those songs I've sang to before without really hearing (if that makes sense!). Anyways, great song and I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving if you celebrate Greg!!
ReplyDeleteOh yes... that is totally 80's rock in style and lyrics. I don't remember it, but that doesn't mean anything. I'm feeling nostalgic now. Thanks, Greg!
ReplyDeleteNow I have it stuck in my brain :D
ReplyDeleteI can totally relate to love not being on time. ;D
ReplyDeleteI will forever associate this band with Africa, but this was a good tune too.
ReplyDeleteI love this song!!! Going to listen to it while I do some blog-hopping now!
ReplyDeleteToto is one of the most underrated bands ever. My husband owns all their CDs - snobby critics can say what they want, but their music carved itself a place near the top of the "pop-meets-rock" olympus. I have to say I love the music itself more than the lyrics, but that happens often with me, so who cares LOL.
ReplyDeleteI loved that song!!
ReplyDeleteKaren @ For What It's worth
I love this song but somehow never realized that it was by Toto. No clue how I missed that, lol.
ReplyDeleteAnything with Lord of the Rings and I'm all in. Happy Thanksgiving right backatcha! Hugs, RO
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard this song in forever! And I can totally relate with it :D
ReplyDeleteThis is one of their best songs. Such a wonderful rhythm and what can I say, I'm an 80's girl at heart!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this song! Toto is such a great band and I love singing along to their songs.
