Marianne Faithfull - I'm a Loser lyrics

Of all the love I have won or have lost

There is one love I should never have crossed

He was a boy in a million, my friend

I should have known he would win in the end

I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me

I'm a loser, and I'm not who I appear to be

Although I laugh and I act like a clown

Beneath this mask I am wearing a frown

My tears are falling like rain from the sky

Is it for him or myself that I cry?

I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me

I'm a loser, and I'm not who I appear to be

I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me

I'm a loser, and I'm not who I appear to be

What have I done to deserve such a fate?

I realise I have left it too late

And so it's true pride comes before a fall

I'm telling you so that you won't lose at all

I'm a loser, and I lost someone who's near to me

I'm a loser, and I'm not who I appear to be

I'm a loser
