Hold my hand the moonlight All we have is today Until my bones just away. And happened every year .. Every year clockwork. But let me first how it really began. About ten from exactly this date A young man was sent to fight in a far off place La had to say goodbye, Had to leave his and his lover's pretty eyes It her heart and she wanted him to stay But not even her gentle hands could persuade him way. He was gone for what to be years, And his beautiful counted everyday with tears. November 1st was the last time she Thinking he'd be coming home but all she heard was that died. She was told he was a brave man But it was news his young lover just, she couldn't understand. So she her sorrow and her soul, The way she knew how By herself into the well. She thought together, they'd be in the afterlife. Won't you dance with me Hold my hand under the All we have is just my bones just blow away. But she didn't know, is that she had heard wrong The man did return, only to find that she had fallen Her untimely meant that they were now both alone Never to dance together again or see how old that they had The next day he flowers by the well Burned candles in the evening wishing been the one that fell He knew seeing her, wouldn't happen with tears So he decided to wait for her, she had done for all those years November 2nd from this on He made sure he until the break of dawn So could dance together, for just this one day, Holding hands with his calavera on El Dia de la Won't you with me tonight? Hold my hand the moonlight All we have is just my bones just blow away.
