LYRICS
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 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've 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
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
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
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

I send this song to my man a year after we started dating.I dont believe it would last longer than it should. We both came from broken family and he doesnt believe in marriage.He told me usually relationship only lasted 4years before it go downwards.But for some reason we became stronger together than alone.Year after year. And 3years later we were married and this April it would be our 4th year wedding anniversary.True love does exist. Edit: Oh wow i didnt know anyone would notice this comment. Came back because suddenly i just miss this song!Yes i am still married to the same man.My baby just turned 4years old a week ago.

My brother went through an ugly divorce when his daughter was 13. She was depressed for years, and then entered one abusive relationship after another until she finally just gave up on love. Told everyone she was just going to stay a single crazy cat lady for the rest of her life. Then she met a man named Brandon. Fell so happily and healthily in love. And she's getting married next Friday. I guess he is her only exception. Thanks for making her a believer, Brandon. We love you guys!

[@samanthalyons8081]

This song came out when I was about 17. I’m 30 now. For me it’s about having more longer more sustained relationships and experiences as you grow older, and realizing that all of those previous people from my teenage years were experiences/lessons.

[@Neopolitan_Illusion]

I heard the chorus of this song only a few times when I was younger, it felt repetitive. Being a young adult I realized how amazing it would've been if you get to meet the right person, you'd probably be near speechless to tell them how much they mean to you and this song speaks on your behalf. I keep singing this song even though I don't have a life partner yet.

it hits different when you’re no longer a child. as a kid, all you want to do is grow up, then you become an adult, start listening to paramore for nostalgia, and realize you just want to be a kid again. funny how that works.

April 28 2024 today is the day that i woke up and just hated everything, things seems so scattered and no point to repair the tiny bits of pcs, but then hearing the voice of my beloved seems the only exception from the chaos. How i wish to be with him, we're currently in ldr situation, and i can't wait to tell him how much he uplift me from all of these messed up feelings, he is my serenity and even if i don't understand most of the things by now, in doesn't matter as long as he keeps my sanity in place.

To my only exception, I hope this reaches you. I’ve dedicated this song to you unknowingly; it felt right, like an anthem that automatically plays in my head when you walk or talk or do something, anything. You inspire me to do many things, your kind words and adorable actions make me hope in true love, or to just believe in love. I’ve always been avoidant with other people. But with you, I feel different. I feel like dreaming, hoping. Yes, I said I hope you read this but I also hope you won’t. I can only say this here as to not destroy our friendship. Because I don’t deserve you, you deserve the world, stay focused, a-.

[@gabrieldeoliveira7725]

I can imagine that, because it's true. This song has her feelings and emotions in it. The motivation that made her song so good was true, the counterpart was false. And that's why love is for you, not for others. It only matters to you, not your partner. The song has true fellings, it just can't be true because of the true nature of what it represents. And for us it's only a good song, that tell us one sweet lie, that is true for a second.

Heres the Lyrics, incase you wanted to sing along like I do 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 But 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 But, 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 your 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 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.

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 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 have 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-ohhh. You are the only exception. [4x] You are the only exception. [4x] And I'm on my way to believing. Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.

[@Natei]

This was mine and my ex girlfriends song. We both didn't really look for love, because from what we had seen in the past it didn't seem like it was a good option. Then we both met each other. I had the most wonderful 4 years of my life. And then it broke down, "maybe i know somewhere deep in my soul, love never lasts" We always knew. Love does last, relationships with the wrong people don't. She was my exception. I have stayed single since, shes been with people, And I want her to be happy more than anything. I guess really what I'm saying is, love even when you aren't loved. spread positivity. It'll come back to you. I might have a hard time dealing with this, but I'm blessed with much more in life. Life is a roller coaster, you might as well throw your hands in the air and scream, cry and laugh. Got to enjoy the ride, the line is too long to have another go. EDIT: Wow, I came back and realised I had many messages youtube just hadn't shown me. I'm so glad you all resonate with what I say. I think its even more important in a frightning world we currently live in. I'm getting better all the time, and growing. I sometimes hear this song and think of that time again, and I have a smile on my face. It was great time in my life and I'll never forget it. I'm on my way to believing.

You are loved by a God. Not just loved now, but created for something much better than the here and now! Ask Jesus to show you how He sees you! The Catholic Church is where I found my peace in wrestling with being "not chosen or enough." From one broken human to the next, Jesus is the only one who can fill you fully. Desires for love and to be loved by another are good, too! Keep hoping for someone better than the ones who can't see you for you!

don't dedicate your favorite song to someone because when they leave, everytime u hear that song u will always remember them and it sucks to know that only the memories will comeback, not the person.

[@pinkmarioooooo]

Yea, this song hits differently to me now. So fool of me to make him the exception ._.

[@anthonymendez1997]

Yes and no....the song brings back the memories and not the person, but the memories are just as important as the person. Every single person that comes into your life will influence you in one way or another, some people more than others. Those who we have romantic attachment towards carry special significance even long after they leave us. I can speak for myself in saying that I dedicate this song to someone special in my past, because she taught me that there is someone out there for me. Even though it ultimately wasn’t her in the end and she’s long gone (I doubt she even remembers me), I haven’t forgotten that lesson she taught me, even now that over a decade has passed and I thank her for that. This song reminds me of my time with her, but more importantly the lesson I learned from her. Even though she wasn’t my only exception, I’ve learned from her that there is an only exception out there for me. I think of what we went through and even though we may have needed to go our separate ways, there’s no reason to believe that what I went through with her can’t happen again. Just think of the last few words: “and I’m on my way to believing”. I believe someday somewhere that I will find that only exception. You can wallow in every failed relationship or you could turn the light on them and use them as the path in rungs of the ladder in finding your true soulmate and that’s why the memories are so important. This song always carries a special place in my heart because of that.

De niña veía a papá querer poseer a mamá, veía a ambos tirarse cosas, a ambos gritar, a ambos fallarse de maneras en las que me sentí muy afectada desde mis 6 años, nunca se divorciaron y decidieron seguir juntos por darme un futuro a mi, del cual agradezco mucho. Hoy en día se la llevan mucho mejor, pero saben? Desde los 6 años haber visto, vividio y sentido toda esa experiencia equivocada del amor, me afectó, y me volvió arisca al amor, me ha sido muy difícil el perdonar hasta lo más mínimo, soy de las que a la mas mínima cosa, me voy, me pierden, también soy de las que cuando veo que algo va demasiado serio me asusto, me aterra, quiero huir. Solo con un hombre sentí verdadera esta canción, le agradezco porque pude construir la mejor versión de mi, y nunca me arrepentí de dedicarle esta canción porque jamás me hizo daño, fui yo que no pude seguir más, me tuve que ir, a pesar de todo, quedamos en buenos términos. Ya 4 años de eso, y no he vuelto a conocer un hombre que cumpla mis expectativas en la actualidad. Mi querido corazón azul, gracias por haberme hecho sentir segura, tranquila, amada y respetada de una manera en la que ni mis propio padres pudieron enseñarme.
