The Only Exception

by Paramore

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 I promised
I would never sing of love if it does not exist

But darlin'

You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption

Baby 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 staright face
And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable distance
And up until now
I had swore to myself that I'm content
With lonliness
Because none of it was ever worth the risk


You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption

I got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of
What's infront of me here
I know you're leaving in the morning
But when I wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof
Its not a dream
Ooh Ooh


You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption

You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption
You are the only exeption

And I'm on my way to believin'
Ohh, and I'm on my way to believin'
