Gonna tie our love in a double knot
'Cause these days love gets strained a lot
To give our hearts a double shot
Let's tie our love in a double knot
Woah, if we want to endure
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
While we're wrapped up in those ties that bind
I want to make sure we don't unwind

So we'll tie our love in a double knot
'Cause these days love gets strained a lot
To give our hearts a double shot
Let's tie our love in a double knot

'Cause I've got my dreams, baby you got yours
Put it together, we got a whole lot more
'Cause I ain't lookin' for just one night
No, I want to make it the rest of our lives

So lets tie our love in a double knot
'Cause these days love gets strained a lot
To give our hearts a double shot
Let's tie our love in a double knot

Woah, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Tie our love in a double knot
'Cause these days love gets strained a lot
To give our hearts a double shot
Let's tie our love in a double knot

Tie our love in a double knot
Let's tie our love in a double knot

[Repeat until fade]
Tie our love in a double knot
