Intro
Verse 1
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
Verse 2
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
Chorus
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
Instrumental Bridge
Verse 3
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
And 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
Chorus 2
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
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
