| 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 |
