Lyrics

The secret of a happy marriage

Maybe you should write this down

If you want to keep a love together

The best way is to end it now

Because when you both know its over

Suddenly the truth comes out

You can talk about your secret passion

You can talk about your restless doubt

When there's no pretending

Then the truth is safe to say

Start with the ending

Get it out of the way

Now there's no defending

Because no one has to win

Start with the ending

Its the best way to begin

After you have both decided

You were missing something that you need

The ways that you were too short-sighted

Get easier for you to see

And after all the expectations

Shatter on the kitchen floor

You just see another human suffering

And you wonder what the war was for

When there's no pretending

Then the truth is safe to say

Start with the ending

Get it out of the way

Now there's no defending

Because no one has to win

Start with the ending

Its the best way to begin

Happy anniversary darling

We go back a long, long time

I think about our lives together

I'm so grateful you are here in mine

And I know you'll keep on changing

You're moving in this dance with me

I love the way we embrace the future

And keep the past a memory

So there's no defending

That the old ways could remain

We start with the ending

And things will never be the same

Now there's no defending

Because no one has to win

Start with the ending

Its the best way to begin

Now there's no pretending

Then the truth is safe to say

Start with the ending

Get it out of the way

Now there's no defending

Because no one has to win

Start with the ending

Its the best way to begin

Now there's no defending

Because no one has to win

Start with the ending

Its the best way to begin
