Bad Reception

Here I sit with my guitar

The very one you gave

And I ain't comin' to the show

I'm done with being brave

I get a bad reception

Every time I get you near

And though the line was dying

I get the message loud and clear

It takes a while to hang it up

Although I love the ring

And even though I nearly lost it

I will keep on singing

Cause a bad rejection

Makes a woman of a child

And when your confidence is dying

There's more reason to be wild

To be wild, to be wild

Well don't mistake my horns for halos

Just because I loved you like a child

And it's no joke to be the one

Left thumbing for a ride

Who tries to smile with all the ones

Who cheer now at your side

I get a bad reception

But I used to get so near

And though our love went mild

I still remember us so wild
