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 
 [bad word]  
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh 
Hold the line, love isn't always on time, oh oh oh 

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 
 [bad word] 
 [bad word] break) 

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 
 [bad word] - 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
