Dwight Yoakam - An Exception To The Rule lyrics

Soft clouds all drift away Bright sunshine never stays Warm afternoons turn rainy dark and cruel A candle's glowing light will die The purest voices often lie And with love I've found that all the same is true Even though I should know better I guess we could maybe try There is the risk of looking like a fool Ah, But I've got a lucky feeling Just a hunch, don't ask me why You might be an exception to the rule Sweet dreams can't be recalled High hopes can collapse and fall As the sky keeps turning sadder shades of blue The strongest promise finally breaks And only leads to bigger aches Are lessons that I learned at sorrow's school Even though I should know better I guess we could maybe try There is the risk of looking like a fool Ah, but I've got a lucky feeling Just a hunch, don't ask me why You might be an exception to the rule Even though I should know better I guess we could maybe try There is the risk of looking like a fool Ah, but I've got a lucky feeling Just a hunch, don't ask me why You might be an exception to the rule Soft clouds all drift away And bright sunshine never stays But you might be an exception to the rule
