Let Her Go

Only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Now, you're staring at the bottom of your glass
Hopin' one day you'll make a dream last
The dreams come slow and they go so fast

And 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
You 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
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast

Well, you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch, no, never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much, and you dived too deep

But you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You 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

Ooh
You let her go, ooh

You only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You 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

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
