Orleans On Hold Lyrics

Your voice comes through the wire
Then it's not there at all
I'm left holding this piece of plastic
Wondering why did you call
Is it just a bad connection?
Should I hang up and try again?
Is it just my imagination
Or is another call coming in?

You've got to hold me, I cry
Will you hold? You reply
I want you to hold me
But you just put my love on hold

I can't get a word in edgewise
Between all the things that you do
I can hear you reach for the button
When the talk turns away from you
It's been such a long, long distance
Such a long, long time
But how can I make contact
When there's no one on the line?
You've got to hold me, I cry
Will you hold? You reply
I want you to hold me
But you just put my love on hold

Hold me, I cry
Will you hold? You reply
I want you to hold me
But you just put my love on

Hold me, I cry
Will you hold? You reply
I want you to hold me
But you just put my love on hold
Put my love on hold

I'm cryin', hold me, I cry
Will you hold? You reply
I don't wanna cry
Hold me, I cry
Don't you put my love on hold
Put, put my love, put my love on hold, baby

Will you hold me? I cry
I could wait forever
Will you hold? You reply
Hold me, I cry
Don't you put my love on hold
