Let Him Go

Well you only need the light when it's burning low.
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
Only know you love him when you let him 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 him when you let him go.

And you let him 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 him when you close your eyes,
Maybe one day you'll understand why.
Everything you touch, it surely dies.

But you only need the light when it's burning low.
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
Only know you love him when you let him 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 him when you let him go.

And you let him 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 him when you fall asleep,
But never to touch and never to keep.
'Cause you loved him 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 him when you let him 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 him when you let him go.

And you let him go. [x3]

Well you only need the light when it's burning low.
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
Only know you love him when you let him 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 him when you let him go.

'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low.
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
Only know you love him when you let him go.

And you let him go.
