[Verse 1]

            
Staring at the

              
 bottom of you

    
r glass
             
Hoping one day

              
 you'll make a

       
 dream last
              
But dreams com

            
e slow and the

                  
y go so fast
            
You see her wh

              
en you close y

      
our eyes
             
Maybe one day 

              
you'll underst

    
and why
              
Everything you

            
 touch surely 

             
dies


[Chorus]

              
But you only n

Only miss the 

             
sun when it st

         
arts to snow
              
Only know you 

             
love her when 

                        
you let her go
              
Only know you'

Only hate the

Only know you've been high when you're feeling low

Only know you love her when you let her go
N.C.
And you let her go
