The Only Exception

Paramore

1. 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 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

R: You are the only exception
   You are the only exception
   You are the only exception
   You are the only exception

2. 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

R: 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 with some kind of proof it's not a dream, whoa
   
R: You are the only exception...(2x)
   
   And I'm on my way to believing
   Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.
