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 for now when you're feeling low

Only hit the road when you're missing home

Only know you love her when you let her go

Baby 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 we touch surely dies

You only need the light when it's burning low

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow

Only know

Only know you love her when you let her go

Only know you feel high when you're feeling low

Only hit 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

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

You let her go

Oh oh hmm

And you let her go

Oh oh hmm

Will 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

Do you only need the light when it's burning low

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow

Only know you love when you let her go
