Soldier of Fortune Songtext
von Red Circuit

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 and 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 sound
Of a windmill going 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
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 going older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill going round
Guess I′ll always be
A soldier of fortune

Yes, I can hear the sound
Of a windmill going round
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune.

I guess I′ll always be
A soldier of fortune.
