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

He thought, "how can I not fall in love with that,
a (5)____________ little women with an attitude to match"
He reached for her hand, and she wasn't impressed,
she wanted little to do with his gentle caress.

Won't you (6)__________ with me tonite
Hold my (7)________ under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just (8)________ away.

And this happened (9)__________ year .. (10)__________ year like clock work.

But let me first tell how it really began

About ten years from exactly (11)________ date
A young man was sent away to fight in a far off place
La Centinela had to say goodbye,
had to leave his (12)________ and his lover's pretty eyes

It broke her heart and she wanted him to stay
But not even her gentle (13)__________ could persuade him another way.
He was gone for what (14)____________ to be years,
and his (15)__________________ lover counted everyday with tears

November 1st was the (16)________ time 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 (17)________ his young (18)__________ just, she just couldn't understand.

So she drowned her sorrow and her soul, the only way she knew how
by throwing (19)______________ 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 (20)________ she had heard wrong
The young man did return, only to find that she had fallen
Her untimely death meant that they were now both alone
Never to dance together again or see how old that they had grown

The next day he placed flowers by the well
burned candles in the evening (21)______________ he'd been the one that fell
He knew seeing her wouldn't (22)____________ with just tears
So he decided to (23)________ for her, (24)________ she had done for all those years

So (25)________ could dance together, for (26)________ (27)________ one day,
Holding hands (28)________ 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 just blow away.
