The Only Exception Lyrics

[00:21.02] When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry
[00:27.32] And curse at the wind
[00:31.38] He broke his own heart and I watched
[00:35.49] As he tried to reassemble it
[00:41.70] And my momma swore
[00:44.13] That she would never let herself forget
[00:52.36] And that was the day that I promised
[00:56.16] I'd never sing of love if it does not exist
[01:01.59] But darling, you are the only exception
[01:07.83] You are the only exception
[01:13.18] You are the only exception
[01:18.28] You are the only exception
[01:24.29]
[01:29.16] Maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul
[01:35.23] That love never lasts
[01:39.23] And we've got to find other ways to make it alone
[01:45.54] Or keep a straight face
[01:49.67] And I've always lived like this
[01:53.55] Keeping a comfortable distance
[02:00.29] And up until now I had sworn to myself
[02:04.78] That I'm content with loneliness
[02:10.23] Because none of it was ever worth the risk
[02:13.17] But you are the only exception
[02:18.30] You are the only exception
[02:23.47] You are the only exception
[02:28.98] You are the only exception
[02:35.30]
[02:54.41] I've got a tight grip on reality
[02:57.77] But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
[03:05.00] I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up
[03:10.15] Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream
[03:15.78]
[03:21.24] You are the only exception
[03:26.15] You are the only exception
[03:31.27] You are the only exception
[03:36.47] You are the only exception
[03:41.94] You are the only exception
[03:47.07] You are the only exception
[03:52.47] You are the only exception
[03:57.48] You are the only exception
[04:02.93] And I'm on my way to believing
[04:09.62]
[04:12.23] Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
[04:17.84]
