Well you only need the light when it's burning low Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Only know you love her when you let her go You let her go
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead-end street Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you're already flying through the free fall Like the colors in autumn, so bright just before they lose it all
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low Only hate the road when you’re missin' home Only know you love her when you let her go You let her go
Losing him was blue like I'd never known Missing him was dark grey all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met But loving him was red Loving him was red
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong
Staring at the ceiling in the dark Same old empty feeling in your heart 'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast
But losing him was blue like I'd never known Missing him was dark grey all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met But loving him was red Loving him was red
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes Tell myself it's time now, gotta let go
But you let her go You let her go
Losing him was blue like I'd never known Missing him was dark grey all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met Loving him was red But you let her go But you let her go
