Soldier of fortune(Blackmore/Coverdale)
I have often told you stories
about the way I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the soundOf a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...
A soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the soundOf a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be...A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the soundOf a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
