Only Know Your Lover When You Let Her Go
I was listening to my Indy radio on Pandora and I was blown away by Passenger (aka: Mike Rosenberg). I’ve been just losing myself in his music all day. It started with Let Her Go. <— Go, LISTEN. Seriously. A M A Z I N G.
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 goOnly 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
And you let her goStaring at the bottom of your glass
Hoping one day you’ll make a dream last
But dreams come slow and they go so fastYou see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you’ll understand why
Everything you touch surely diesBut 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 goOnly 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 goStaring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
‘Cause love comes slow and it goes so fastWell 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 deepWell 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 goOnly 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 goAnd 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 goOnly 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‘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 goOnly 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 goAnd you let her go
Now I’m falling in love with my second favorite… My Hearts on Fire.
Well, I don’t know how, and I don’t why.
But when something’s living, well, you can’t say die.
You feel like laughing, but you start to cry.
I don’t know how, and I don’t know why.Well, I don’t have many, and I don’t have much.
In fact I don’t have any, but I’ve got enough.
‘Cause I know those eyes, and I know that touch.
I don’t have many, and I don’t have much.But oh, Darling, my heart’s on fire (x3)
For you.Well, I don’t know where, and I don’t when.
But I know we’ll be lovers again.
I’ll see you some day before the end.
I don’t know where, and I don’t know when.But oh, Darling, my heart’s on fire. (x3)
‘Cause only love songs will break your heart.
Only love songs will break your heart. (x2)Oh, Darling, my heart’s on fire (x9)
For you.i hope you’ll take a moment and listen to the music that moved my heart today…
Not only are the lyrics perfect, but the sound is literally everything I dream of music to sound like =]
ENJOY =]

I really like that second one
I listened! Here is an old antique – from an old antique! Maybe to share with Johnny: All I Know!
His voice reminds me a little of Cat Stevens.
I don’t know if you saw this, but here’s a live version. LINK
I’m sure you know this one, but probably not this one that it somehow reminded me of (last verse).
