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

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
