The Only Exception Lyrics - Paramore

1 When I was younger, I saw my daddy cry and curse at the wind

2 He broke his own heart and I watched as he tried to reassemble it

3 And my momma swore that she would never let herself forget

4 And that was the day that I promised I'd never sing of love

5 If it does not exist, but darling

6 You are the only exception

7 You are the only exception

8 You are the only exception

9 You are the only exception

10 Well, maybe I know somewhere deep in my soul that love never lasts

11 And we've got to find other ways to make it alone or keep a straight face

12 And I've always lived like this, keeping a comfortable distance

13 And up until now I had sworn to myself that I'm content with loneliness

14 Because none of it was ever worth the risk

15 You are the only exception

16 You are the only exception

17 You are the only exception

18 You are the only exception

19 I've got a tight grip on reality, but I can't

20 Let go of what's in front of me here

21 I know you're leaving in the morning when you wake up

22 Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, ohh

23 You are the only exception

24 You are the only exception

25 You are the only exception

26 You are the only exception

27 You are the only exception

28 You are the only exception

29 You are the only exception

30 You are the only exception

31 And I'm on my way to believing

32 Oh, and I'm on my way to believing
