The (1)__________ starts, it was a late November night
She had a flower in her hair, he had his uniform on tight
He (2)__________________ his watch, like nothing else was wrong
She danced by him with her (3)________ as pale as dawn

He looked into her eyes and saw (4)______________ there
He said, "excuse me señorita, but I don't (5)______________ we've had the pleasure"
She said "of course you know me, I'm (6)________ every year,
but don't you get to close when I'm (7)______________ my dear"

He thought, "how can I not fall in love with that,
a pretty little (8)__________ 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 (9)__________ with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we (10)________ is just today
Until my bones just (11)________ away.

And (12)________ happened (13)__________ 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 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 could 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 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 (14)________ his young lover just, she just couldn't understand.

So she drowned her sorrow and her soul, the (15)________ way she knew how
by throwing herself (16)________ the well. She thought together, they'd be together in the afterlife.

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my hand (17)__________ the moonlight
All we (18)________ is just today
Until my bones just (19)________ away.

But (20)________ she didn't know, is that she had heard wrong
The young man did return, only to find that she had fallen
Her (21)________________ death meant that they were now both alone
Never to dance (22)________________ again or see how old that (23)________ had grown

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

November 2nd from this point on
He made sure he patrolled until the break of dawn
So (25)________ could dance together, for just (26)________ one day,
Holding (27)__________ with 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 (28)________ away.
