Staring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
Dreams come slow but they go so fast
You see him as you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies
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
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
Love comes slow but it goes so fast
Well you see him as you fall asleep
Never to touch and never to keep
You loved him too much but you dived too deep
And you let him go
And you let him go
And you let him go
And you let him go
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
