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 love me
And I would surely stay
Chorus:
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 traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old
When nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes
Had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Chorus:
(перевод)
Я часто рассказывал тебе истории
О том, что приключалось со мной,
Когда я жил как скиталец.
В ожидании того дня,
Когда я смогу взять тебя за руку
И спеть тебе свои песни.
Тогда, возможно, ты бы сказала:
"Не уходи, останься",
И я бы остался с тобой навсегда.
Припев:
Но я чувствую что старею,
А те песни, что я уже спел,
Эхом отзываются вдали.
Словно звук
Ветряных мельниц.
Наверное, я так навсегда и останусь
Бездомным искателем приключений.
Я много где побывал,
В поисках чего-то нового под солнцем.
В те давние времена,
Когда ночи были как лёд,
Я скитался одиноко, без тебя.
Но тогда мне казалось что мои глаза
Видели тебя рядом.
А сейчас, несмотря на слабое зрение,
Я понимаю что ты очень далеко от меня.

And sing you songs

Chorus:

Chorus:
(transfer)
I have often told you stories
The fact that befall me,
When I lived as a wanderer.
In anticipation of that day,
When can I take you by the hand
And you sing their songs.
Then maybe you would say:
& quot; Do not go, stay & quot ;,
And I would have stayed with you forever.
Chorus:
But I feel that I grow old,
And the songs that I sing,
Echoed in the distance.
Like the sound
Windmills.
I guess I'll stay forever, and
Homeless adventurer.
I visited many places,
In search of something new under the sun.
In the old days,
When the nights were like ice,
I wandered lonely without you.
But then it seemed to me that my eyes
We saw you there.
And now, in spite of poor eyesight,
I understand that you are very far away from me.
