  • 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

    Running away together,
    Running away forever,
    Angelo
    Running away from danger,
    Hiding from every stranger,

    They found a love so strong
    They took their lives at night
