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 (2)________ was wrong
She danced 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 (4)______________ we've had the pleasure"
She said "of course you know me, I'm here every year,
but don't you get to (5)__________ when I'm dancing my dear"

He thought, "how can I not fall in love with that,
a pretty (6)____________ (7)__________ with an attitude to match"
He reached for her hand, and she wasn't impressed,
she wanted little to do with his (8)____________ caress.

Won't you dance with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones (9)________ blow away.

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

But let me first tell how it (11)____________ began

About ten years from (12)______________ this date
A young man was (13)________ away to fight in a far off place
La (14)__________________ 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 (15)__________ could persuade him (16)______________ way.
He was gone for what (17)____________ 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 (18)________ he'd died.
She was (19)________ he was a brave young man
But it was news his young lover just, she just couldn't understand.

So she (20)______________ her (21)____________ 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 dance with me tonite
Hold my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my (22)__________ just blow away.

But what she didn't know, is that she had (23)__________ wrong
The (24)__________ man did return, only to (25)________ that she had fallen
Her untimely death (26)__________ that they were now (27)________ 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 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 they could dance together, for just this 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 (29)__________ just blow away.
