Sunday February 28, 2021 “Let Her Go” Passenger

Have you ever had an internal debate with yourself about a song? You know, one moment you're thinking this is a really nice song and then another listen and you're 'no way this is cheesy.'

 Passenger started out as a four piece band in 2003 but like many bands over the years the personnel changed a bit and the four piece band became a one piece with only Michael Rosenberg, lead singer and songwriter taking the project solo but maintaining the name.

 Rosenberg has been friends with Ed Sheeran ever since Sheeran was only 15 who is currently 30 years old, and has opened for him on several tours. 

Passenger/Rosenberg’s song “Let Her Go” topped the charts in sixteen countries and In 2014, the song was nominated for the Brit Award for British Single of the Year.   

 So I'm still on the fence with "Let Her Go" one minute I think this is a really nice song and then another listen and I'm thinking 'no way this is cheesy'...wait did I say that already?  Guess it's up to you now.

 Stay safe and well...and this song has 2.9 billion views on YouTube...BILLION.

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

Dreams come slow, go so fast

You see her when you close your eyes

Maybe one day you'll understand why

Everything you touch, oh it 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

Never to touch and never to keep

'Cause you loved her too much and dive 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

 So let her go

Oh oh

let her go

Oh, mmh

You let her go

 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
