Get It Out Of The Way Lyrics - David Wilcox

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
