Centinela by Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich + Fussible

The story starts, it was a (1)________ November night
She had a flower in her hair, he had his uniform on tight
He patrolled his watch, like (2)______________ else was wrong
She danced by him (3)________ her face as pale as dawn

He looked into her (4)________ and saw nothing there
He said, "excuse me seƱorita, but I don't believe we've had the pleasure"
She said "of course you (5)________ me, I'm here every year,
but don't you get to (6)__________ when I'm dancing my dear"

He thought, "how can I not fall in love with that,
a (7)____________ little women (8)________ an (9)________________ to match"
He reached for her hand, and she wasn't impressed,
she wanted (10)____________ to do with his gentle caress.

Won't you dance (11)________ me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just blow away.

And this happened (12)__________ year .. (13)__________ year like (14)__________ work.

But let me first tell how it really began

About ten years from exactly this date
A young man was sent away to fight in a far off place
La Centinela had to say goodbye,
had to leave his home and his lover's pretty eyes

It broke her heart and she wanted him to stay
But not even her gentle hands (15)__________ persuade him another way.
He was gone for what seemed to be years,
and his beautiful lover counted everyday with tears

November 1st was the last (16)________ she cried
thinking he'd be coming home but all she heard was that he'd died.
She was told he was a brave young man
But it was news his young lover just, she just couldn't understand.

So she drowned her sorrow and her soul, the only way she (17)________ how
by throwing herself into the well. She thought together, they'd be together in the afterlife.

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just blow away.

But what she didn't know, is that she had heard wrong
The young man did return, only to find (18)________ she had fallen
Her untimely death meant that they were now both alone
Never to (19)__________ together again or see how old (20)________ they had grown

The next day he placed (21)______________ by the well
burned candles in the evening wishing he'd (22)________ the one that fell
He knew seeing her wouldn't happen with just tears
So he decided to wait for her, like she had (23)________ for all those years

November 2nd from this (24)__________ on
He made (25)________ he patrolled until the break of dawn
So they could (26)__________ together, for just this one day,
Holding hands (27)________ his calavera on El Dia de la muerte

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones (28)________ blow away.
