Deep Purple Soldier Of Fortune Lyrics

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 goin' round.
I 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're 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.
I guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune.
I guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune.
