Start With The Ending - David Wilcox
From What You Whispered .............................................. 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 it's 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 ..............................................
