Can you believe it? I've won more medals in this love game.
I've been resting on my laurels. I'm a bad loser
I'm a yard off my pace
Hhmmm I smell rubber and I soon discovered
That you're gone for good
My indiscretions made a bad impression
Guess I was misunderstood
I thought you needed my loving
But it's my heart that you stole
I thought you wanted my money
But you plundered my soul
(Plundered my soul)
I started asking around but your friend'spretty lips were sealed
I wrote a letter full of drabble and tried the fashions and my wounds that heal
I heard some gossip, you've become an alcoholic, you''e dryin' out.
So I phoned every clinic in the yellow pages, not a trace I found.
I thought you needed my loving
But it's my heart that you stole
I thought you wanted my money
But you plundered my soul
(You plundered my soul)
I hate quittin'but I'm close to admittin I'm a sorry case
But on quiet reflection, my sad rejections not a total disgrace
But I do miss your quick repartee and the smile
That lights anekatips up your face
You'll be a hard act to follow. A bitter pill to swallow
You'll be tough, o you're tough to replace
I thought you wanted my loving
But it's my heart that you stole
You were the trick up my sleeve
My ace in the hole
I thought you wanted my money
But you plundered my soul
Oh plundered my soul oh yeeeah
(You plundered my soul)
