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
Will 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 ceiling in the dark   　
Same old empty feeling in your heart   　
Cos love comes slow and it goes so fast   　
So fast
Well you see her when you fall asleep   　
But never to touch and never to keep
Cos 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   　　
Will 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
