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 dived 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 
And you let her go 
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
