Eternal Loser
Tune: "Eternal Loser", Larry Warner

I loved a girl named Rose once, but lost her on my way
My shadow only said goodbye to her on Bad Wolf Bay
And now our time is over, ere it could really start
My shadow never told her how I felt within my heart

I loved brave joyful Jamie, when we were both so young
Though time was chasing after we had ran so far and long
We could not run forever, our fate was fixed and set
Though he cannot remember me, I never could forget

I loved bright-eyed Romana, round countless stars and suns
We traveled all the universe and four hearts beat as one
Our people called her homewards, she wanted to be free
She travels her own universe – she was too much like me

There was a girl named Jo I knew upon the trapping earth
The cold of exile paled before her bright heart’s endless warmth
I offered her like jewels, all time and space unfurled
But she had two loves over me – another, and her world

I love them and I lose them, they pass like flicker-flame
They slumber deep within me, I remember every name
My lovers, friends, companions, all painful, all sublime
I never ask forever, but I wish we had more time
I wish I had more time
