Long ago
High on a mountain in Mexico
Lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo
Who met a young girl and he loved her so

Rich was she
Came from a very high family
Angelo knew it could never be
They ran away to their destiny

Running away together, running away forever
Angelo
Running away from danger, hiding from every stranger
Angelo

They knew it wasn't wrong, they found a love so strong
They took their lives at night and in the morning light
They found them on the sand, they saw them lying there
Hand in hand
