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 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, yeah
Except that time could slow down I wish that time would slow down
‘Cause why does time keep on giving? But time keeps on ripping me apart Oh-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 the thing that I pray to see before I die Until we get to meet again In paradise I’ll never have to look away
