love will tear us apart

When i was younger I saw my daddy cry And cursed 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 i promised 
Id never sing of love If it does not exist  
But darlin, 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 had sworn to myself that i was content 
With loneliness  
Cos none of it was ever worth the risk, 
but  You, are, the only exception... 
 Ive got a tight grip on reality
 But i cant 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 proof its not a dream  
You, are, the only exception...
And im on my way to believing it. 
And Im on my way to believing it.
