The Only Exception

[RACHEL]

When I was younger, I saw

My daddy cry and curse at the wind

He broke his own heart as I watched

As he tried to reassemble it

And my mama swore 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

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

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

'Cause none of it was ever worth the risk

Well, you are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

You are the only exception

Oh, oh, hey, oh

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, oh

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 (Oh)

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
