The story starts, it was a late night
She had a flower in her hair, he had his on tight
He his watch, like else was wrong
She danced by him with her face as 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 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 fall in love that,
a pretty women with an 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 under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just away.
And this happened 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 eyes
It broke her and she wanted him to stay
But not her gentle could persuade him another way.
He was for what seemed to be years,
and his lover counted everyday tears
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 man
But it was news his young lover just, she just couldn't understand.
So she drowned her sorrow and her soul, the way she knew how
by throwing herself into the well. She thought together, they'd be together in the afterlife.
Won't you dance me tonite
my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just blow away.
But what she didn't know, is she had heard wrong
The young man did return, only to find that she had fallen
Her untimely death meant were now both alone
Never to together again or see how old that they had grown
The next day he placed flowers by the well
candles in the evening wishing he'd been the one that fell
He knew seeing her wouldn't 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 he the break of dawn
So they could together, for just this one day,
Holding hands with his on El Dia de la muerte
Won't you dance with me tonite
my hand under the moonlight
All we have is just today
Until my bones just away.
