Bilingual
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
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
I guess I'll always be a Soldier of Fortune
Many times I've been a traveller
I've looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I've wandered without you
But those days I've 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
I guess I will always be a Soldier of Fortune
