Can you believe it? I've won no medals in this love game. Ive been resting on my laurels. Im a bad loser. Im a yard off my pace. Mmmm I smell rubber and I soon discovered that youre 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's pretty lips were sealed. I wrote a letter full of trite confessions about wounds that heal. I heard some gossip, you've become an alcoholic, youre 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 Im close to admittin Im 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 up your face. You'll be a hard act to follow. A bitter pill to swallow. You'll be tough, oh youre 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 yeah! (You plundered my soul) You plundered my soul. Yeah! Yeah! (You plundered my soul)
There was light in the room. Then you left and it was through. Then the frost started in my toes and fingertips.
and it spread and it spread into my heart. and it spread and it spread into my heart.
Then for I don't know how long, I settled in to doing wrong. and as the wind fills the sail, came the thought to hurt myself.
and it spread and it spread into my home. and it spread and it spread into my song.
well there are no lines. separating the truth from the lies. Then you came back from space, with a brand new laugh and a different face. You took my hand and held it up, and shot my arm full of love.
and it spread and it spread into the world and it spread and it spread into the world.
well there are no lines. separating the truth from the lies.
