When I was younger I saw my daddy cry, and cursed at the wind. He broke his own heart, and I watched as he tried to reassemble it.
And my momma swore that she would never let herself forget, and that was the day I promised, I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.
But darlin', 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 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.
'Cause none of it was ever worth the risk, but...
You, are, the only exception. You, are, the only exception. You, are, the only exception. 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 your leaving in the morning, when you wake up, leave me with some 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 it. Oh, and I'm on my way to believing it.
