Lyrics

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Staring at the bottom of your glass

Hoping one day you'll make a dream last

The dreams come slow and it goes so fast

You see her when you close your eyes

Maybe one day you will understand why

Everything you touch surely dies

[Verse 3]

'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

[Verse 4]

Staring at the ceiling in the dark

Same old empty feeling in your heart

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

[Verse 5]

'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

[Verse 6]

And you let her go

Oh, oh, oh, no

And you let her go

And oh, oh, no

And you let her go

[Verse 7]

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

[Verse 8]

'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
