Almond Eyes

VERSE 1

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

VERSE 2

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

CHORUS 1

If only time could slow down

I wish that time would slow down

VERSE 3

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

CHORUS

Except that time could slow down

I wish that time would slow down

BRIDGE

Why does time keep on giving

But time keeps on ripping me apart

I’ve learned to cherish every moment

‘Cause moments don’t slow down to please the heart

That’s what makes it hard

VERSE 4

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

CHORUS 3

‘Cause that’s when time will slow down

Finally time will slow down
