Dia De Los Muertos

With candles lit and shades drawn up they dance into the square Twirling skirts and gruesome masks with all the night to share They’ve come to honor loved ones they’ve come to sing them home So all the spirits can be at peace so no one is ………alone Up to the gravestones they shall pass and go their merry way The spirits rise to see their folks to watch their bodies sway And dance the welcome of this oh so holy night until the darkness gives way to day and we bask in morning’s light.
