[Verse 1]
             
When I was you

              
nger I saw my 

            
daddy cry and 

              
curse at the w


ind
             
He broke his o

              
wn heart and I

              
 watched as he

            
 tried to re-a

        
ssemble it
             
And my mama sw

              
ore that she w

              
ould never let

          
 herself forge


t
             
And that was t

              
he day that I 

              
promised I'd n

             
ever sing of l


ove 
              
if it does not

  
 exist, but da

rling

[Chorus]
 
You are the on

ly exception
          
You are the on

You are the on

ly exception
          
You are the on

[Verse 2]
              
Maybe I know s

              
omewhere deep 

   ...      
in my soul tha

             
t love never l


asts
             
And we've got 

              
to find other 

              
ways to make i

            
t alone or kee

             
p a straight f


ace
             
And I've alway

              
s lived like t

              
his, keeping a

           
 comfortable d


istance
             
And up until n

              
ow I had sworn

              
 to myself tha

            
t I'm content 

           
with lonelines


s

Because none of it was ever worth the risk

[Chorus]
 
You are the on

You are the on

ly exception
          
You are the on

[Bridge]
...          
           
I've got a tig

ht grip on rea

lity, but I ca

n'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 p

              
roof it's not 

            
a dream, whoa

[Chorus]

[Chorus]
 
You are the on

You are the on

You are the on

ly exception
          
You are the on

[Outro]
             
And I'm on my 

             
way to believi

   
ng
             
Oh, and I'm on

             
 my way to bel
