Fernando lyrics by Abba

Fernando in the style of ABBA (S.Anderson / B.Andersson / B.Ulvaeus) © Universal Music Publishing Group © (MIDI FIle) Hit Trax MIDI Files www.MIDI.com.au ========================= 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 sound of bugle calls were coming from the far. 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 canons 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. And since many years I haven't seen the rifle in your hand. Can you hear the drums, Fernando? Do you still recall the frightful 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 we 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 we 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.
