Centinela by Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich + Fussible

The story starts, it was a late November night
She had a flower in her hair, he had his uniform on tight
He patrolled his watch, like nothing else was wrong
She danced by him (1)________ her face as pale as dawn

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 (2)________ "of course you know me, I'm here every year,
but don't you get to close when I'm dancing my dear"

He thought, "how can I not (3)________ in love (4)________ that,
a pretty little women with an attitude to match"
He reached for her hand, and she wasn't impressed,
she (5)____________ little to do (6)________ his gentle caress.

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.

And this happened every year .. every year like clock work.

But let me first tell how it really began

About ten years from exactly this date
A young man was sent away to (7)__________ in a far off place
La (8)__________________ had to say goodbye,

But not even her gentle (10)__________ could persuade him (11)______________ way.
He was gone for what seemed to be years,
and his (12)__________________ lover counted everyday with tears

November 1st was the last time she cried
thinking he'd be coming (13)________ 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 (14)______________ her sorrow and her soul, the only way she knew how
by throwing herself (15)________ the well. She thought together, they'd be together in the afterlife.

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my (16)________ under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my (17)__________ just blow away.

But what she didn't know, is (18)________ she had heard wrong
The young man did return, only to find that she had fallen
Her untimely (19)__________ meant that they were now both alone
Never to dance (20)________________ again or see how old (21)________ they had grown

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

November 2nd from this point on

So they could (25)__________ together, for just (26)________ one day,
Holding hands with his (27)________________ on El Dia de la muerte
