Well you only need the light
when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun
when it starts to snow
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
Only know you’ve been high
when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road
when you’re missing home
Only know you love her
when you let her go
And you let her go
...
Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day
you’ll make a dream last
But dreams come slow
and they go so fast
...
You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you’ll understand why
everything you touch surely dies
...
But you only need the light
when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun
when it starts to snow
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
Only know you’ve been high
when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road
when you’re missing home
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
’Cause love comes slow
and it goes so fast
...
Well you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
’Cause you loved her too much
and you dive too deep
...
Well you only need the light
when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun
when it starts to snow
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
Only know you’ve been high
when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road
when you’re missing home
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
And you let her go oh oh oh no
And you let her go oh oh oh no
Well you let her go
...
’Cause you only need the light
when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun
when it starts to snow
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
Only know you’ve been high
when you’re feeling low
Only hate the road
when you’re missing home
Only know you love her
when you let her go
...
’Cause you only need the light
when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun
when it starts to snow
Only know you love her
when you let her go
