Refrain) 

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 missin home 

Only know you love her when you´ve let her go 

And you let her go 

Strophe) 

Staring at the bottom of your glass 

Hoping one day you will make a dream last 

The dreams come slow and they go so fast 

You see her when you close your eyes 

Maybe one day you will understand why 

everything you touch surely dies

Refrain) 

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 missin home 

Only know you love her when you´ve let her go 

And you let her go 

Strophe) 

Staring aht the ceiling in the dark 

Same old empty feeling in your heart 

Love comes slow and it goes so fast 

Well you see her when you fall asleep 

But to never to touch and never to keep 

Because you loved her too much 

and you dived too deep 

Refrain) 

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 missin home 

Only know you love her when you´ve let her go 

And you let her go 

Bridge) 

And you let her go oh oh oh oh oh oh 

And you let her go oh oh oh oh oh oh 

and you let her go 

Refrain) 

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 missin home 

Only know you love her when you´ve let her go 

And you let her go 

Refrain) 

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 missin home 

Only know you love her when you´ve let her go 

And you let her go
