Lyrics
There was a time when I needed you around
Used to hang on every single word you said
I never minded the times you let me down
Never knew you were somewhere else instead
Then one day you went away
And now you're back again
Well boy I'm older and wiser now
And I'm sorry to say
That I don't feel that way anymore
I'm not the girl I used to be
I can't be sure but I'm guessing that you're history
You're no good for me
You messed around boy, you played me loose
Did you think I would be
Like a child that's so easy to fool
You're nothing, you're history
So when I say goodbye don't hang round to ask why cause you're free
Like you wanted to be
I used to think I'd be nothing without you
I cried the whole night through
Spent the whole day feeling blue
There's one thing that I think you need to know
Well boy I'm older and wiser now
And I'm sorry to say
That I don't feel that way anymore
I'm not the girl I used to be
I can't be sure but I'm guessing that you're history
You're no good for me
You messed around boy, you played me loose
Did you think I would be
Like a child that's so easy to fool
You're nothing, you're history
So when I say goodbye don't hang round to ask why cause you're free
Like you wanted to be
