Lyrics: One Exception

When I saw you walking down the street
I said
That’s the kind of guy I’d like to meet
If I just had the chance
Maybe I could find me a little romance

So I
Went and asked you if you knew the time
(you knew the time)
Hoping that you wouldn’t see that I was just
playing for more (playing for more)
Seeing if you fit for the grand amore

I said
I don’t think I really ought to talk to you
There are somethings that a girl is not meant to do
But you’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)
I don’t have to go on looking anymore
There has never been a guy like you before
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)

I was breaking a society rule (breaking a rule)
I would surely go and blow my cool
When you asked me my name (asked me my name)
I thought that I was going crazy (crazy),
I was going insane

But then
As we walked off to a small café (small café)
Just about a block or so away
I knew you were the one (you were the one)
I had a funny feeling something could have begun

I said
I don’t think I ought to talk to you
There are somethings that a girl is not meant to do
But you’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)
I don’t have to go on looking anymore
There has never been a guy like you before
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)

One exception, you’re the one
exception, you’re the one
exception
One exception, you’re the one
exception, you’re the one
exception

One day we will be together
And the two of us will be forever
And we’ll both remember, won’t we?
We’ll remember won’t we?

I don’t think I really ought to talk to you
There are somethings that a girl is not meant to do
But you’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)
I don’t have to go on looking anymore
There has never been a guy like you before
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)

You’re the…
One exception
One exception
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)

Hey yeah
I don’t think I really ought to talk to you
There are somethings that a girl is not meant to do
But you’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)
I don’t have to go on looking anymore
There has never been a guy like you before
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)

You’re the…
One exception
One exception
You’re the one exception to the rule
(ooh, oooh…ooh, oooh)
