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.
(Chorus:)
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 that night, and in the morning light
They found them on the sand, they saw them lying there, hand in hand.
Long ago, high on a mountain in Mexico,
lived a young shepherd boy, Angelo,
who met a young girl, and he loved her so.
Chorus (bis)
