Comments: | We
were just trying to write a fast, nasty rock track ... nothing more. The photo below is from the Juno Awards in Toronto, 1985. Bryan and I are accepting our "Composer Of The Year" awards for the album Reckless. |

Lyrics: | And you were comin' on Mama told me there'd be days like these I shoulda known better maybe Woulda seen right through ya I needed you like a disease I ain't gonna cry over you You're a mystery I ain't gonna cry over you You're history - history You said you'd wait forever But I know your type The lights are on but no-one's home I changed my number maybe You better change your mind Cause I'd rather spend the night alone I ain't gonna cry over you You're a mystery I ain't gonna cry over you You're history - history I ain't gonna cry over you You're a misery I ain't gonna cry over you You're history I ain't your kinda guy So forget about me Cause I ain't too shy to say what I'm thinkin' - hit it I got reckless baby Put you in your place Next time maybe rearrange your face Chorus |
