Artist/Band: Dwight Yoakam
Lyrics for Song: An Exception To The Rule
Lyrics for Album: Population Me [Audium Entertainment] [2003]



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...
