about
This song teaches us to let go of the past, to let go of what is stopping us from growing emotionally and spiritually. We are beings that are evolving all the time, our path is our own only and sometimes we get stuck in life. Not because we reached the end of our evolution but because without knowing it, sometimes we stop our evolution ourselves.
The reason for that is that we don't let go. We hold on to memories, we hold on to people, we hold on to habits, and all of this is stopping us from reaching our true potential. To let go is to learn how to become a new person and reinvent ourselves. To love someone is also to learn to let go so that person can also reach their true potential.
Holding on to destructive relationships will lead to unhappiness on both sides. It is part of the journey, it is painful at the start but it becomes a magical process as we discover a whole new world within and we finally realize that the pain was worth it. As the song says, we usually realize that we miss something once we have lost it, but do we truly lose the people we love? Do we truly lose the sun when winter is here? Do we truly lose the light when darkness is around?
No, we never lose these things, they are always there, we just lose our way and we need to walk our path until we find it again. People we love will always be there despite separations. The sun is always there, behind the clouds, waiting for the right moment to come back. The light is in us, always, waiting to be called upon in our darkest moments.
So with this cover song, we wanted to bring these feelings to you, to let go of what is stopping you from being your true self, and to always remember that what you are and what you cherish the most, will ALWAYS be there, within you 💗
lyrics
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
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her 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 her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day, you'll understand why
Everything you touch 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 her when you let her 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 her when you let her 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 her when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you loved her too much, and you dived 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 her when you let her 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 her when you let her go
And you let her go
And you let her go
Well, you let her 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 her when you let her 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 her when you let her 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 her when you let her 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 her when you let her go
And you let her go
