Fernando - The Insurgency

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 a 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 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 your 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 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

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
