You whispered your past like it’s something to hide A heavy old ghost that you keep locked inside You think that you’re broken, you’re taking the blame But looking at you, I don't see any shame I know that you’re cautious, I know why you wait The guys from your past left a lot on your plate But I'm keeping my eyes on the road up ahead Replaying the words that you haven’t yet said Usually, I’d see a red flag and I’d run Usually, I’d pack up my bags and be done But every new flaw makes me want you more I’m standing right here, I ain't finding the door I just wanna be your exception The one who won't take, the one with intention When the night gets too loud and you’re losing your breath I’ll be the safe place that you have left It’s too early for "love" but my feelings begin The sun in the day, where my midnights begin I wanna be your exception You’re testing the waters, you’re taking your time And honestly, darling, that's perfectly fine I don't need to rush you to get to the end I’m learning your rhythm, I’m being your friend You need someone to listen, not someone to take A hand you can hold that you know will not break Intimacy without an edge or a price Just warmth in the dark when your history is ice I just wanna be your exception The one who won't take, the one with intention When the night gets too loud and you’re losing your breath I’ll be the safe place that you have left It’s too early for "love" but I want ours' begin The sun in the day, where my midnights begin I wanna be the exception It's not your fault, what they did to your mind It's not your fault, what you're leaving behind I don't wanna look back, we can focus the view On the miles ahead, on the sunrise with you Yeah, the sunrise with you...
