We were children who played On the backstreets of border towns And we dreamed of the day when we might run away To where the good life was found I remember the night When I asked you to be my girl Now I feel so ashamed of the promise I made When I said I would give you the world My Angelina, when I look in your eyes I believe I could change the world With you by my side My Angelina, give me courage to try I believe in the man I see In my Angelina's eyes Seems like nothin' worked out Quite the way it was planned to be Oh, the dreams that we chased when we came to this place Are like nightmares to me Workin' day after day In the noise of the factory And the money's no good but if I say a word Immigration will take me away My Angelina, when I look in your eyes I believe I could change the world With you by my side My Angelina, give me courage to try I believe in the man I see In my Angelina's eyes If I hadn't been drunk I would never have hit that man But the whiskey and I saw the look in his eye When he asked Angelina to dance Now they're takin' me south To a jail down in border town But it won't be for long, Angelina, be strong Keep believin' our dreams will work out My Angelina, when I look in your eyes I believe I could change the world With you by my side My Angelina, give me courage to try I believe in the man I see In my Angelina's eyes My Angelina, when I look in your eyes I believe I could change the world With you by my side My Angelina, give me courage to try(fade)
