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.
