Lyrics Soldier of Fortune - Bryan Ferry

Soldier of Fortune

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
Girl stop rockin'
You’re driving me insane
I’m going out of my mind
And I won’t be back again
I’m a soldier of fortune
An ambassador of pain
I had the world on a string
And I threw it all away
Girl stop rockin'
You’re driving me insane
I’m going out of my mind
And I won’t be back again
Girl stop rockin'
You’re driving me insane
I’m going out of my mind
And I won’t be back again
Girl stop rockin'
You’re driving me insane
I’m going out of my mind
And I won’t be back again
I won’t be back again
