Modern day Romeo & Juliet
American tragedy
Low rent high rise lovers who met
At the end of Coronado Street
Crucifix made in the California gold
Two worlds bound to collide
Heaven cant help you if you go
Faster than angels fly
Well they burned the candle at both ends
As they danced into the flames
Making love and making plans
Driving Mother Mary insane
Strong as the beads of a rosary
Never too young to die
Some souls only know one speed
Faster than angels fly
Ghost haunted barrio in Hollywood
They were still holding hands
When all hell broke loose
Broke loose
They both left this world with more
Than most true lovers do
Repeat Chorus
