Centinela by Nortec Collective Presents: Bostich + Fussible

The story starts, it was a late November night
She had a (1)____________ in her hair, he had his uniform on tight
He patrolled his watch, like nothing else was wrong
She (2)____________ by him with her (3)________ 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 said "of (4)____________ you (5)________ me, I'm here every year,
but don't you get to close when I'm (6)______________ my dear"

He thought, "how can I not fall 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 (7)____________ caress.

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

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

But let me first tell how it really began

About ten (9)__________ from (10)______________ 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 news his (11)__________ lover just, she (12)________ couldn't understand.

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

Won't you (13)__________ with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my (14)__________ (15)________ (16)________ away.

But what she didn't know, is that 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 (17)__________ or see how old that they had grown

The next day he (18)____________ flowers by the well
burned candles in the evening wishing he'd been the one that fell
He knew seeing her wouldn't (19)____________ with just tears
So he decided to wait for her, like she had done for all those years

November 2nd from this (20)__________ on
He (21)________ sure he patrolled (22)__________ the break of dawn
So they could (23)__________ together, for just this one day,
Holding hands with his calavera on El Dia de la muerte

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my (24)________ under the moonlight
All we have is (25)________ today
Until my (26)__________ just (27)________ away.
