Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I like to love with my eyes closed

I try not to lead with my ego

Everything happened in slo-mo

But we all smiled and said, "It's alright"

[Verse 2]

'Cause you're the one, you're the one

Double the fun, triple the time for love

You're the one, you're the one

You suck the words from my tongue, that's when I knew

[Chorus]

I only (I only)

I only (I only)

I only have eyes for two

I only have eyes for two

I only (I only)

I only (I only)

I only have eyes for two

[Verse 3]

Remember we sipped from the same glass?

She bit your neck, and I liked that

We said some things we can't take back

I'm happy it's out in the open

[Verse 4]

'Cause you're the one, you're the one

Double the fun, triple the time for love

'Cause you're the one, you're the one

You suck the words from my tongue, that's when I knew

[Chorus]

I only (I only)

I only (I only)

I only have eyes for two

I only have eyes for two

I, I only (I only)

I only (I only)

I only have eyes for two

[Outro]

Yeah, I only have eyes

Yeah, I only have eyes for two, for two

Yeah, I only have eyes

Said, I only have eyes, said, I only have eyes
