When I was younger I saw my daddy cry And curse at the wind He broke his own heart As I watched As he tried to re-assemble it
And my momma swore 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 You are the only exception
Maybe I know, somewhere Deep in my soul That love never last And we've got to find other ways To make it alone Or 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
Wohhh, Ohhhh, Heyyy Wohhhhh
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
Ohhhhh
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
