Let Her Go

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 missin' home

Only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go

You let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass

Hoping one day you'll make a dream last

Dreams come slow, and you go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes

Maybe one day, you'll understand why

Everything you touch should surely die

But you only need the light when it's burnin' 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 missin' 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

Love comes slow and it goes so fast

You see her when you fall asleep

But never to touch, never to keep

'Cause you loved her too much

And you dived in too deep

But you only need the light when it's burnin' 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 missin' home

Only know you love her when you let her go, oh

But you let her go

You let her go

'Cause you only need the light when it's burnin' low

Only miss the sun when it starts to snow

Only know you love her when you let her go

You only know you're high when you're feeling low

Only hate the road when you're missin' home

Only know you love her when you let her go

But you let her go
