Centinela by Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich + Fussible

The story starts, it was a late (1)________________ 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 with her (2)________ as pale as dawn

He looked into her eyes and saw nothing there
He said, "excuse me seƱorita, but I don't believe we've had the pleasure"
She said "of (3)____________ 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 (5)________ in love with that,
a pretty 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 dance with me tonite
Hold my hand (6)__________ the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just blow away.

And this (7)________________ every (8)________ .. 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 (9)__________________ had to say goodbye,
had to leave his (10)________ and his lover's pretty eyes

It broke her heart and she (11)____________ 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 (12)__________________ lover counted (13)________________ 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 (15)__________ lover just, she just couldn't understand.

So she (16)______________ her sorrow and her soul, the only way she knew how
by (17)________________ 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 (18)________ is just today
Until my bones just blow away.

But what she didn't know, is that she had (19)__________ 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 (20)________
burned (21)______________ in the evening wishing he'd (22)________ the one (23)________ 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 (24)________ this point on
He made sure he patrolled until the break of dawn
So they (25)__________ dance together, for (26)________ this one day,
Holding (27)__________ with his calavera on El Dia de la muerte

Won't you dance (28)________ me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we (29)________ is just today
Until my bones just blow away.
