Almond Eyes

Almond eyes
Beaming through the crowd like piercing bright blue lights
A glow like angels, girl you had me hypnotized
I could never look away
And our first kiss
Something changed this foolish kid into a man
Things I'd prayed for my whole life now all make sense
This is what I was made for

If only time could slow down
I wish that time would slow down

Almond eyes
Our boys look just like you when you make them smile
We prayed for wild boys and boy did we get wild
But I would never change a thing

Except that time could slow down
I wish that time would slow down

So why does time keep on giving
But time keeps on ripping me apart, oh
I've learned to cherish every moment
Cause moments don't slow down to please the heart
That's what makes it hard

Almond eyes
The last thing that I pray to see before I die
Until we meet again in paradise
I'll never have to look away

Cause that's when time will slow down
Finally time will slow down
