Lyrics for Song: Angelina 
Lyrics for Album: Some Memories Just Won't Die [Columbia] [1982]
  
               
  9635>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)
