My Exception

You do everything right except for the fact that you don’t do it to me that way
I love that look except for the fact that you don’t look at me that way
I tell you everything except for the fact that I’m in love with you 
In my dreams I was the exception, your exception 
But the truth is I’m not 
And I’ll never be yours
For now I’m just another rule
