The Only Exception (Live from Nova 100 Australia)
When I was younger I saw
- 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 reassemble it
- And my mama 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
- But you are the only exception
- But you are the only exception
- But you are the only exception
- Well 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 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
- Well you are the only exception
- Well you are the only exception
- 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 of some kind of proof it's not a dream ohh
- You are the only exception
- You are the only exception
- You are the only exception
- You are the only exception
- 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 believing
- Oh and I'm on my way to believing
