Fernando - ABBA lyrics

Fernando

CAN YOU HEAR THE DRUMS, FERNANDO

I REMEMBER LONG AGO ANOTHER STARRY NIGHT LIKE THIS

IN THE TWILIGHT FERNANDO

YOU WERE HUMMING TO YOUSELF AND SOFTLY STRUMMING YOUR GUITAR

I COULD HEAR THE DISTANT DRUMS AND SOUNDS OF BUGLE CALLS

WERE COMING FROM A FAR

THEY WERE CLOSER NOW, FERNANDO

EVERY HOUR EVERY MINUTE SEEMED TO LAST ETERNALY

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

Chorus :

THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THE AIR THAT NIGHT

THE STARS SO 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 (2X)

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 FREIGHTFUL NIGHT

WE CROSSED THE RIO GRANDE

I CAN SEE IT IN YOUR EYES

HOW PROUD YOU WERE TO FIGHT FOR FREEDOM IN THIS LAND

Repeat Chorus 2X…..
