Whitesnake - The Purple Album: Special Gold Edition

Soldier of Fortune (2023 Remix)

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
