Hard To Say Hello

In the weeks that follow a breakup

The last thing you want to do

Is be out buyin' groceries

And see you-know-who

I left a half-filled shopping cart

Sittin' on isle three

Made a beeline for my car

Prayin' that she didn't see me and

It ended well

We said we'd still be friends

So somebody tell me why

It's so hard to say hello

To the one who said goodbye

Months pass and you move on

You hardly think about it

I don't remember where I was

I just remember it was crowded

I ducked behind a friend of mine

The minute she walked in

And it'd be one thing if we

Swore we'd never talk again but

It ended well

We said we'd still be friends

So somebody tell me why

It's so hard to say hello

To the one who said goodbye

You spend years with a person

You know all their secrets

You've said, "I love you", a million times

I used to light up the moment I'd see her

Now I look for a place to hide

Now I've found the woman

That I'm meant to be with

The moment I saw her I just knew

So isn't it crazy I still get flustered

Whenever I run into you-know-who

It's so hard to say hello

Can somebody tell me why

It's so hard to say hello

To the one that said goodbye
