The Only Exception
When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And cursed at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble itAnd my momma swore that
She would never let herself forget
And that was the day I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not existBut darlin,
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exceptionMaybe 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 faceAnd I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I'm content
With lonelinessBecause none of it was ever worth the risk, butYou, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exception
You, are, the only exceptionI've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't
Let go of what's in front of me here
I know your leaving
In the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dreamOhYou, 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 exceptionAnd I'm on my way to believing.
Oh, And I'm on my way to believing.
