Just sixteen, life's moving fast and it could be gone before you know it
Just my dream to have a pick-up and a house on some land somewhere
You can plan all that you want but no matter how hard you try
I'll keep on running back to her
When she looked at me with those emerald eyes
I'd give her all I've got some say she's all mine
I wish that I could just buy back time
To when she looked at me with those emerald eyes
Some girls talk about how great our life
Her and I together would be
Like fancy cars and downtown bars
All the shit that we would need
I'd be locked up and forgotten
Lord knows I would never be free
But when I think about love I see
Her look at me with those emerald eyes
I'd give her all I've got some say she's all mine
I wish that I could just buy back time
To when she looked at me with those emerald eyes
Emerald eyes
Emerald, emerald
I miss the touch of her rose lips
While her hands are holding mine
But the one thing that I miss more than that
Is when she looked at me with those emerald eyes
I'd give her all I've got some say she's all mine
I wish that I could just buy back time
To when she looked at me with those emerald eyes
Emerald eyes
Emerald, emerald eyes
