Lyrics

Well, you on ly need the light when it’s burn in’ low.

On ly miss the sun when it starts to snow.

On ly know you love her when you let her go.

On ly know you’ve been high when you’re feel in’ low.

On ly know the road when you’re miss in’ home.

On ly know you love her when you let her go.

And you let her go.

Star ing at the bot tom of your glass, hop ing 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.

May be one day you’ll un der stand why ev ’ry thing you touch sure ly dies.

But you on ly need the

And you let her go.
