Can you hear the cars, Fernando ?
I remember long ago another rainy day like this
In the flashing lights, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant cars
And found at Google walls but no good place to pass
They come closer now, Fernando
Every hour every minute seems to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
I was young at start of race and now I must prepare to die
And I’m not ashamed to say
The roar of cars and motors almost made me cry
There was someone in my way tonight
Where stars aligned: Fernando
They were standing there for you and me
For Liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that I could lose
There’s no regret
If I have to do the same again
Beware, my friend, Fernando
If you ever do the same again
We’ll crash, my friend, Fernando.
Now we’re old and grey, Fernando
Since many years I haven’t seen a trophy in your hand
Can you hear the cars, Fernando
Do you still recall the frightful Bottas pics from Rio Grande
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to stroll as if your name was Lance
There was someone in my way tonight
Where stars aligned: Fernando
They were standing there for you and me
For Liberty, Fernando
Though I never thought that I could lose
There’s no regret
If I have to do the same again
Beware, my friend, Fernando
If you ever do the same again
We’ll crash, my friend, Fernando.
