Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never know what to say when I see you
I don't know you anymore, but damn, I used to
I know your deepest secrets
The dreams you've been dreaming and all of your moods
Just because we're not speaking
Doesn't mean I don't remember all of you
[Chorus]
Ain't it funny how, "Hey"
Becomes, "How are you?"
Becomes, "I'd love to"
Becomes, "I want you and need you," and then
Becomes, "I love you"
Becomes, "I hate you"
Becomes, "I never wanna see you again"
Whoa, oh, I wish we could go back to
"Hey"
[Verse 2]
I saw you just the other day, passing your street, mm
From soulmates to strangers, it's hard to believe
And every now and then
I find myself forgetting why I let you go, oh
I think about calling
But always find a reason to put down the phone
[Chorus]
Ain't it funny how, "Hey" (Hey)
Becomes, "How are you?"
Becomes, "I'd love to" (Ooh, I'd love to)
Becomes, "I want you, I need you," and then (Hey)
Becomes, "I love you" (Becomes, "I love you")
Becomes, "I hate you" (Ooh, hate you)
Becomes, "I never wanna see you again"
Whoa, oh, I wish we could go back to
[Bridge]
The day we met (Ooh)
The innocence (Ah)
That first, "Hello" (Oh, that first, "Hello")
And though it's over (Hey)
There's love left over
With nowhere to go, yeah, yeah (No, no, no-no-no)
When I see you now
Still gonna love you (Love you)
Oh, yeah, yeah
When I see you now
Still gonna love you
But just not out loud
[Chorus]
Ain't it funny how, "Hey" (Hey)
Becomes, "How are you?" (Ah)
Becomes, "I'd love to" (Mm)
Becomes, "I want you and need you," and then (Hey)
Becomes, "I love you"
Becomes, "I hate you"
Becomes, "I never wanna see you again"
Whoa, oh, I wish we could go back to
[Outro]
Wish we could go back to
Wish we could go back to
"Hey"
