Hard To Say Hello lyrics
by Brad Paisley
[Verse 1]
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 aisle three
Made a beeline for my car
Prayin' that she didn't see me
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Guitar solo]
[Bridge 2]
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
[Outro]
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
