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 re-assemble it.
and my mamma 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 (4x)
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 swored to myself
that I'm content with loneliness
cause none of it was ever worth the risk.
You are the only exception (4x)
I've got a tight grip on reality
but I can't let go of whats infront of me here.
I know you're leaving in the mornin when you wake up
leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream
You are the only exception (8x)
