Let Her Go

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Staring at the bottom of your glass

Hoping one day you'll make a dream last

'Cuz 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 surely, it dies

But you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun, when it’s starts to snow

Only know you love him when you’ve let him 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 him when you’ve let him go

Staring at the ceiling in the dark

Same ol’ empty feeling in your heart

'Cuz 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

'Cuz you loved her to much

And you dive too deep

Well, you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun, when it’s starts to snow

Only know you love him when you’ve let him 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 him when you’ve let him go

And you let him go

Ooooo ooooo oooooo

And you let him go

Ooooooo ooooo ooooo

Well you let him go

'Cuz you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun, when it’s starts to snow

Only know you love him when you’ve let him 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 him when you've let him go

'Cuz you only need the light when it’s burning low

Only miss the sun, when it’s starts to snow

Only know you love him when you’ve let him 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 him when you’ve let him go

And you let him go
