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
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
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
Last thing that I pray to see before I die
Until we meet again in paradise
I'll never have to walk away
'Cause that's when time will slow down
Finally time will slow down
