When I was younger
I saw my daddy die
and drift with the wind.
He broke his own heart
as I watched
and we 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 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
our love always lasts
And we've got to find all our 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 no of it was ever worth the risk.
For 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 I'm leaving in the morning, when you wake up I'll leave you with some kind of proof its not a dream
Ooh Ooh.
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 moving.
Oh, and I'm on my way to moving.
