Let her go

You only need the light when it's burning low
You only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
Only know that you've been high when you're feeling low
You only hate the road when you're missin' home
You only know you love her when you let her go
When you let her go

Staring at the bottom of your glass
You're hoping one day you'll make a dream last
'Cause dreams come slow, but they go so fast
You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch only dies

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
You only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
Only know that you've been high when you're feeling low
You only hate the road when you're missin' home
You 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, but it goes so fast
And you see her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
You loved her too much, but you dove too deep

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
You only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
Only know that you've been high when you're feeling low
You only hate the road when you're missin' home
You only know you love her when you let her go

And you let her go
Yeah, you let her go
Yeah, you let her go
Yeah, you let her go

Only need the light when it's burning low
You only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
Only know that you've been high when you're feeling low
You only hate the road when you're missin' home
You only know you love her when you let her go

Only need the light when it's burning low
You only miss the sun when it starts to snow
You only know you love her when you let her go
Only know that you've been high when you're feeling low
You only hate the road when you're missin' home
You only know you love her when you let her go
Let her go
