Lyrics
0:21When I was younger I saw
0:25My daddy cry
0:27And curse at the wind
0:31He broke his own heart And I watched
0:35As he tried to reassemble it
0:41And my mama swore
0:44That she would never let herself forget
0:52And that was the day that I promised
0:56I'd never sing of love
0:58If it does not exist
1:01But darling you are the only exception
1:07But you are the only exception
1:13But you are the only exception
1:18But you are the only exception
1:29Well maybe I know somewhere
1:32Deepin my soul
1:35That love never lasts
1:39And we've got to find other ways
1:43To make it alone
1:45Or keep a straight face
1:49And I've always lived like this
1:53Keeping a comfortable distance
2:00And up until now I had sworn to myself
2:04That I 'm content with loneliness
2:10Because none of it was ever worth the risk
2:13Well you are the only exception
2:18Well you are the only exception
2:23Well you are the only exception
2:28Well you are the only exception
2:54I've gotta tight grip on reality
2:57But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
3:05I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
3:10Leave me of somekind of proof it's not a dream ohh
3:21You are the only exception
3:26You are the only exception
3:31You are the only exception
3:36You are the only exception
3:42You are the only exception
3:47You are the only exception
3:52You are the only exception
3:57You are the only exception
4:02And I'm on my way to believing
4:12Oh and I'm on my way to believing
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 Deepin 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 gotta 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 somekind 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
