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)
