Ancient History

Some girls tell you what you wanna hear
Those girls always make it very clear
But I know things are not what they appear
Nothin' from nothin' gets you nothin' at all

We talk hours on the telephone
But you shut down when we're alon
You stop us from being close
Nothin' from nothin' gets you nothin' at all

There's no rhyme and
There's no reason

She don't want anything other than
She don't need anyone other than
She don't see anyone but herself, herself
I don't want anyone other than
I don't need anyone other than

I will solve your mystery
And make it ancient history

Some guys try to hide the way they feel
And sometimes, it takes someone to break the seal
You can't negotiate a one-way-deal
Nothin' from nothin' gets you nothin' at all

I'll wait, I've got the patience of a safe
I just don't want you to hesitate
'Cuz you don't ever wanna mess with fate
Nothin' from nothin' gets you nothin' at all

There's no rhyme and
There's no reason

She don't want anything other than
She don't need anyone other than
She don't see anyone but herself, herself
I don't want anyone other than
I don't need anyone other than

I will solve your mystery
And make it ancient history

Don't mislead me
Don't mistreat me
I don't understand
Why you're wearin' me down

Please believe me
Why defeat me
I don't understand
Why you're breakin' me down!

She don't want anything other than
She don't need anyone other than
She don't see anyone but herself, herself
I don't want anyone other than
I don't need anyone other than

I will solve your mystery
And make it ancient history

I will solve your mystery
And make it ancient history
