Soldier of fortune
I have often told you stories, about the way
I lived life of a drifter, waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
maybe you would say
Come lay with me love me, I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
--------
Many times I've been a traveler
I looked for something new
In days of old, when nights were cold
I wandered without you
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 sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin' 'round
guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
