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
