The Only Exception

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
