El Cantor

Why did he go away,
if he'd only stayed,
with us

Why did they hurt him so,
why did he have to go,
go way


R : El Cantor
he'll live for evermore,
for we shall hold his banner high

in the wind
as if he'd always been
smiling, urging us always on

For I know El Cantor
he'll live for evermore,
for we shall sing his songs so clear,

and his melodies
are our memories
of his faith
and his love
