Silence

Intro

When I was younger, I saw

Verse

My daddy cry and curse at the wind
He broke his own heart and I watched
As he tried to reassemble it
And my mama swore that she would
Never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised

Chorus

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
Well, maybe I know somewhere

Verse

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, you are the only exception

Chorus

You are the only exception
You are the only exception
You are the only exception

Instrumental

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, oh
You are the only exception

Verse

You are the only exception
You are the only exception

Chorus

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

Outro

Chorus
