I have often told you stories                                                    

Ti ho spesso raccontato storie

about the way                                                                         

 sulla strada

i live the life of a drifter                                                        

ho vissuto la vita del "girovago"

waiting for the day                                                                  

aspettando il giorno

when i'd take your hand                                                           

quando potrò prenderti per mano

and sing your songs                                                                    

e cantare le tue canzoni

then maybe you would say                                                            

poi forse tu vorrai dire

come lay with me love me                                                             

vieni stenditi con me amami

and i would surely stay                                                             

e io sicuramente vorrò restare

But i feel i'm growing older                                          

Ma sento che sto diventando più vecchio

and the songs that i have sung                                                        

e le canzoni che ho cantato

echo in the distance                                                                    

echeggiano nella distanza

like the sound                                                                             

come il suono

of a windmill goin' ' round                                                 

di un mulino a vento che gira intorno

i guess i'll always be                                                                       

e capisco che sarò sempre

a soldier of fortune!                                                                         

un soldato di ventura!

Many times i've been traveller                                              

talvolta sono stato un viaggiatore

i looked for something new                                                             

cercavo qualcosa di nuovo

in days of old                                                                               

"in giorni di vecchiaia"

when nights were cold                                                                  

quando le notti erano fredde

i  wandered without you                                                               

io girovagavo senza di te

but those days i thought my eyes                                      

ma quei giorni pensavo che i miei occhi

had seen you standing near                                                            

ti vedessero stare vicino

though blindness is confusing                                                       

sebbene la cecità confonda

it show that you're not here                                                       

mostra che tu non sei qui

Now i feel i'm growing older                                     

adesso sento che sto diventando più vecchio

and the songs that i have sung                                                       

e le canzoni che ho cantato

echo in the distance                                                                   

riecheggiano nella distanza

like the sound                                                                               

come il suono

of a windmill goin' 'round                                                  

di un mulino a vento che gira intorno

i guess i'll always be                                                                 

io capisco che sarò sempre

a soldier of fortune                                                                     

un soldato di ventura

yes i can ear the sound                                                                  

sì io posso sentire il suono

of a windmill goin' 'round                                                   

di un mulino a vento che gira intorno

i guess i'll always be                                                                  

io capisco che sarò sempre

a soldier of fortune!                                                                      

un soldato di ventura
