Soldier Of Fortune (live)

Soldier Of Fortune (live), David Coverdale, a capela.

(Original Lyrics by Deep Purple)
I have often told you stories
About the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When Id 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 Im growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin round
I guess Ill always be
A soldier of fortune

Many times Ive been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thougt my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that youre not here

Now I feel Im growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill goin round
I guess Ill always be
A soldier of fortune
Yes, I can hear the sound
Of a windmill goin round
I guess Ill always be
A soldier of fortune

[pavko59]

Да, я слышу мельниц стоны,

Скрипы, вздохи, плачи.

Полагаю – мне судьба

На века - солдат удачи.

Полагаю – мне судьба

На века - солдат удачи.

@sokkrnut Sorry, I think that's not quite right. Blackmore & Coverdale wrote this song together

@5150pb yeah, I also noticed how well matched Chris Cornell and David Coverdale's voices are
