Who Loses - Ferron

Old river winding

Water run high

If there’s gold for the finding

Well, it’s passing me by

How I ache for a part in a play

I could say I didn’t blow

O Louise won’t you please me now

You bring me to my knees

You only tease me now

It seems you’re always trying to show

That you’re unkind

T hat you’ve got nothing for a heart

And echoes in your mind

You know, faking everything

Don’t make it fine

Take everything

But don’t take my time

I walked to some river

And I felt how it flowed

Though I feel like a beggar now

I say I’ve chosen to go

Some loving is torture

It seems ours is not the way

O Louise I’m gonna leave you now

You bring me to my knees

You only grieve me now

It seems you’re always trying to show

That you’re unkind

That you’ve got nothing for a heart

And echoes in your mind

You know, faking everything

Don’t make it fine

Take everything

But don’t take my time
