Soldier of Fortune - Deep Purple 

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 sound
of a windmill going 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



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 going round
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune


I can hear the sound
of a windmill going round
I guess I'll always be
a soldier of fortune
