  • 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 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

  • You are the only exception (x3)

  • 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've sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness

  • Because none of it was ever worth the risk

  • Well you are the only exception

  • You are the only exception (x3)

  • 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 (x8)

  • And I'm on my way to believing

  • Oh, and I'm on my way to believing

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry
