about
Searing violin tears through the heart in this love-gone-wrong song, with major dynamic contrasts between jazzy reflective vocals and dirty drivin’ mad guitar.
Once in a while you will give me a little smile
When things are going just the way you want them to
Sometimes love doesn’t seem to be worthwhile
And you only smile when you make me feel a fool
Oh you can love me, oh so good, so good
But that’s the exception, yeah, to the rule
You can make me feel like I never thought I could (no, no)
But that’s the exception to the rule
Oh, hey, oh, yeah
You like to think that you’re oh so much better
And you could never possibly be wrong
Giving me pain is the thing that gives you pleasure
So why do I stay when I’d rather be long gone
Oh you can love me oh so good, so good
But that’s the exception, yeah, to the rule, oh to the rule
And you can make me feel like I never thought I could
But that’s the exception, yeah, to the rule
Oh, hey, oh, yeah
One of these days maybe you will see your face
And you will find that you don’t like what you see
Maybe you’ll find that it just is not your place
To be the one who is always hurting me
Oh you can love me oh so good, so good
But that’s the exception, yeah, to the rule, oh to the rule
You can make me feel like I never thought I could
But that’s the exception, yeah, to the rule
Oh, hey, oh, yeah
Tell me why is that the exception
