The Only Exception

Glee Cast

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...
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
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 you are the only exception
you are the only exception
you are the only exception
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

oh oh oh 

you are the only exception
you are the only exception
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
