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
