TYING THE KNOT

you are the girl that's meant for me
the woman i have sought
so on this day
i'd like to say
it's time to tie the knot

back in the thirteenth century
this phrase was tossed about
you want to know
why this is so ?
i've got it figured out

two lines are brought together
when a job needs to be done
it adds some length
and also strength
much more than only one

a single point of confidence
that handles any test
if tied just right
it clenches tight
and stands up to the best

when lines like this are pulled upon
the tension never breaks
the power grows
and heaven knows
a stronger union, makes

the rings upon our fingers
is a circle that we share
but that lovely rope
that gives us hope
has a knot that's nice and square
