Well, now I am thinking Maglor for some reason.

For I am marred,
My skin is scarred;
I never will
From all this heal.

From East to West
Many a success -
I shall list them
If you'll listen.

I could tell a dreadful story -
Death and darkness, fall from glory.
Are they coming? No more going.
You can't watch the water flowing!

First Age shenanigans
Will you take me?
I'm no beauty.

Will you keep me?
I'm not strong, see.

Will you bring me?
I'm not happy.

Will you give me?
Do not leave me!

The shoutout to grey haven bunch (Gandalf, Frodo, Galadriel, Cirdan, Elrond etc etc to take him with them.

The verse 'you can't watch the water flowing' indicates that he can only watch the sea, whose waters don't flow.
