Paramore – The Only Exception lyrics
{Verse 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 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 darlin'
{Chorus}
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
{Verse 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, well
{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
{Instrumental and Drums}
{Bridge}
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
Ooh Ooh...
{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
[X2]
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
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 darlin'
{Chorus}
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
You are the only exception!
{Verse 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, well
{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
{Instrumental and Drums}
{Bridge}
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
Ooh Ooh...
{Chorus}
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception
[X2]
And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
