Fernando by Abba

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 (1)____________ strumming your guitar

I could hear the distant drums

And (2)____________ of bugle calls were coming from afar

They were closer now Fernando

Every hour every minute (3)____________ to last eternally

I was so (4)____________ Fernando

We were young and (5)________ of (6)________ 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 gray Fernando

Since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand

Can you hear the drums Fernando?

Do you still recall the faithful night we crossed the Rio Grande?

I can see it in your eyes

How proud you were to fight for freedom in (7)________ 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 (8)__________ thought (9)________ 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, (10)________________
