The Rolling Stones - plundered my soul

화자는 사랑의 실패와 그로 인해 아픈 마음을 털어놓으며, 상대가 떠난 이유와 자신의 잘못을 회상한다
상대방이 알코올 중독으로 힘든 시간을 보내고 있다는 소문을 듣고 도움을 주고자 하지만 정보를 찾지 못해 무력감을 느낀다
결국 사랑이 가져온 상처와 잃은 감정을 절실하게 느끼게 된다

Can you believe it
I've won no medals in this love game
I've been resting on my laurels
I'm a bad loser, I'm a yard off my pace
I smell rubber and I soon discover
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 friends' pretty lips were sealed
I wrote a letter full of trite confessions
About wounds that heal
I heard some gossip, you'd become an alcoholic
You were drying out
So I phoned every clinic in the Yellow Pages
Not a trace I found
