Knowing you were there
Made me want to be there too
Listening to you
Made everything clear for me
How can we go on
Pretending everything remains the same
When we know we're not guided by you
Although we wish we were?
The death of someone who is alive
Hurts more than the physical death
Knowing that it didn't have to be like this
Makes it hurt more to know
That there's nothing we can do
Nothing can replace
The bond a friendship creates
No nice words, no smiles
Can replace your scoldings
Your severe words
Are sweeter to me than all the "it's oks"
Tears roll down in my face
As I think about your impact
Your presence has left a trace
Of you in the hearts of all your
Sisters, brothers,
Sons and daughters
I know you are there
But at the same time you aren't
Your heart aches
As ours do too
But there's nothing we can do
We are all fading out
Since they took away your light
We're groping through darkness now
Since your candle isn't by our side
You're lit somewhere else
I just wanna say
That after all we've been through
I'd never change one second
And I just hope you'll always be
This person we made you
Because we will always be
These people you turned us into
Love, your sisters, brothers,
sons and daughters
Only need the light when it’s burning low Só precisa da luz quando ela está acabando
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Só sente falta do sol quando começa a nevar
Only know you love her when you let her go Só sabe que você a ama quando a deixa ir
And you let her go E você a deixa ir
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Só sente falta do sol quando começa a nevar
Only know you love her when you let her go Só sabe que você a ama quando a deixa ir
And you let her go E você a deixa ir
Now staring at the bottom of your glass Agora olhando para o fundo do seu copo
Hoping one day you will make a dream last Esperando que um dia você faça um sonho durar
Dreams come slow and goes so fast Os sonhos vem devagar e vão embora tão rápido
And you see her when you close your eyes E você a vê quando fecha os olhos
Maybe one day you will understand why Talvez um dia você entenda porquê
Everything you touch all it dies Tudo que você toca morre
Hoping one day you will make a dream last Esperando que um dia você faça um sonho durar
Dreams come slow and goes so fast Os sonhos vem devagar e vão embora tão rápido
And you see her when you close your eyes E você a vê quando fecha os olhos
Maybe one day you will understand why Talvez um dia você entenda porquê
Everything you touch all it dies Tudo que você toca morre
But you only need the light when it’s burning low Mas você só precisa da luz quando ela está acabando
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Só sente falta do sol quando começa a nevar
Only know you love when you’ve let her go Só soube que você a amava quando a deixou ir
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low Só sabe que já esteve feliz quando está se sentindo triste
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home Só cai na estrada quando sente falta de casa
Only know you love when you’ve let her go Só sabe que a ama quando a deixa ir
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow Só sente falta do sol quando começa a nevar
Only know you love when you’ve let her go Só soube que você a amava quando a deixou ir
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low Só sabe que já esteve feliz quando está se sentindo triste
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home Só cai na estrada quando sente falta de casa
Only know you love when you’ve let her go Só sabe que a ama quando a deixa ir
Staring at the ceiling in the dark Encarando o teto no escuro
Same ol’ empty feeling in your heart O mesmo velho sentimento de vazio no seu coração
Love comes slow and it goes so fast O amor vem devagar e vai embora tão rápido
Well you see her when you fall asleep Bom, você a vê quando dorme
But to never to touch and never to keep Mas nunca toca e nunca mantem
'Cause you loved to much Porque você amou demais
And you dive too deep E mergulhou fundo demais
Same ol’ empty feeling in your heart O mesmo velho sentimento de vazio no seu coração
Love comes slow and it goes so fast O amor vem devagar e vai embora tão rápido
Well you see her when you fall asleep Bom, você a vê quando dorme
But to never to touch and never to keep Mas nunca toca e nunca mantem
'Cause you loved to much Porque você amou demais
And you dive too deep E mergulhou fundo demais
But you only need the light when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
And you let her go
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
And you let her go
Ooh! Ooh!
And you let her go
Ooh! Ooh!
And you let her go
Ooh! Ooh!
You only need the light when it’s burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you love when you’ve let go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low
Only hit the road when you’re missin’ home
Only know you love when you’ve let her go
And you let her go
