Soldier of Fortune - Opeth

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

And maybe you would say

"Come lay with me and love me"

I would surely stay

Now I feel I'm growing older

And all 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 traveler

I looked for something new

In days of old when nights are cold

I wandered without you

Those days I thought my eyes

Could see you standing near

Though blindness is confusing

It shows that you're not here

Now I feel I'm growing older

And all 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'll always be

A soldier of fortune
