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 re-assemble it. And my mamma swore she would never let herself forget. And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love if does not exist. But darling..
You are the only exception (x4)
Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts. 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 swore to myself that I'm content with loneliness, 'cause none of it was ever worth the risk.
But you are the only exception (x4)
I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't let go of whats part 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.
Whooa..
You are the only exception (x8) And I'm on my way to believing.. (x2)
