soldier of fortune

Bryan Ferry

I m a soldier of fortune
An ambassador of pain
I had the world on a string
Then I threw it all away

I m a prince of illusions
All spinning around in my brain
There s a mockingbird calling
And this is what he s saying

Girl stop rockin
You re driving me insane
I m going out of my mind
And I won t be back again

I was driving down the street
And I saw you in the rain
Now it s breaking my heart
And I want you back again

I was stirred and shaken
Had a miracle in mind
In the heat of the night
I left it all behind

I m a soldier of fortune
An ambassador of pain
I had the world on a string
And I threw it all away

I won t be back again
