Secret of a happy marriage
Maybe you should write this down
You wanna keep a love together
The best way is to end it now

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
It's the best way to begin
It's 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

After all the expectations
Shatter on the kitchen floor
You just see another human suffering
And 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
It's the best way to begin
It's the best way, best way to begin

Happy anniversary, darling
We go back a long, long time
I think about our lives together
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

But now, there's no defending
So that no one has to win
Start with the ending
It's the best way to begin
It's the best way to begin

No defending
The truth is safe to say
Start with the ending
Get it out of the way

No defending
No one has to win
We start with the ending
It's the best way to begin
It's the best way to begin

Now, there's no defending
No one has to win
We start with the ending
It's the best way, the best way to begin

Begin, begin
It's the best way to begin
