ABBA - Fernando lyrics
[ABBA - Fernando lyrics]
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
I remember, long ago
Another starry night like this
In the firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and
Softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums and sounds
Of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now, Fernando every hour
Every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life and
None of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say the roar of
Guns and cannons almost made me cry
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
Since many years I haven't seen
A rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night
We crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
For freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
I remember, long ago
Another starry night like this
In the firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and
Softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums and sounds
Of bugle calls were coming from afar
They were closer now, Fernando every hour
Every minute seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life and
None of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say the roar of
Guns and cannons almost made me cry
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
Since many years I haven't seen
A rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night
We crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
For freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that we could lose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes, if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
