Sparks - Miss the Start, Miss the End lyrics

Neither has a predilection, neither has an afterthought And neither chair gets warm at all and neither takes their jacket off For this they'll pay the same money to see the event As you and I and we'll see it all They've never seen a curtain rise, a kick-off or the Final gun and never have they seen the titles flashing cross the rising sun I'm done, I'm done, I'm done, I will be silent again Quiet now, It's all gonna begin Miss the start, miss the end 'Cause they're such very good friends And there are things to be loved and things to only attend Miss the start, miss the end The opening bars and the closing bars might as well not exist They're not needed, needed, really needed You and I have got to see the start You and I have got to see the end We need more than just each other So much more than just each other They don't need more than each other Not much more than just each other They don't need the total picture, just a drawing of each other Hung inside their bungalow, where wondrous things are all discovered You and I must see how it starts and ends And tell them what they missed once again.
