When I was younger I
saw my daddy cry And curse at the wind He broke his own heart And
I watched As he tried to reassemble it
And my momma swore
that She would never let herself forget And that was the day that I
promised I'd never sing of love If it does not exist
But
darling You are the only exception You are the only exception You
are the only exception
Maybe I know, somewhere Deep in my
soul That love never lasts And we've got to find other ways To
make it alone Keep a straight face
And I've always lived like
this Keeping a comfortable, distance And up until now I had
sworn to myself that I'm Content with loneliness
Because none
of it was ever worth the risk
Well You are the only exception You
are the only exception You are the only exception You are the
only exception
I've got a tight grip on reality But I can't Let
go of what's in front of me here I know you're leaving In the
morning, when you wake up Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a
dream Ohh
You are the only exception You are the only
exception You are the only exception You are the only exception You
are the only exception You are the only exception You are the
only exception You are the only exception
And I'm on my way to
believing Oh, And I'm on my way to believing
