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 missin' home Only know you love her when you let her go And you let her go Staring at the bottom of your gla** 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 will 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 missin' 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 But love comes slow and it goes so fast Well you see her when you fall asleep But never to touch and never to keep Because you loved her to 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 missin' home Only know you love her when you let her go Oh, and you let her go And you let her go And you let her go When you let her... When you let her go If 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
