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 reassemble it And my mama swore That 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 But you are the only exception But you are the only exception But you are the only exception Well, 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 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 Well, you are the only exception Well, you are the only exception Well, you are the only exception 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 of some kind of proof it's not a dream, ohh 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
