The Only Exception

歌詞

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind 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 that I promised I'd never sing of love if it does not exist But Darling 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 Keep a straight face 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 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 You are the only exception I'm on my way to believing
