“开始了?”
茶小二放下了才拿起的擦桌布，神伤地晃着茶杯，像啄木鸟样子昂着头，嘬了一口茶，看着茶老板走下一楼大厅来。
“还有两桌没摆好茶，吃的，啊，算了”，茶老板边数着没上好茶的客人，边想着店里还没请个厨师什么的做茶点。
“可惜这歌了，至少要唱到下午的，就是没吃的，客人一会就得走了。”茶小二在一边漫不经心地说着。
“咱今天这歌唱的什么，让你觉得这般可惜了！”
“这不是唱的很后悔吗，挺伤感的但又有点振作人心。”茶小二说着放下茶杯了。
“那你得学学唱这歌了，到时客人不来这没人上茶的茶馆，茶馆倒闭了，就该你上场唱这歌了。”
茶小二悻悻地跑开上茶去了。
歌词大意：
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦胧黯淡时才念及灯火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地时才怀念阳光温暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真爱
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身处低谷时才遥想过去峥嵘
Only hate the road when you’re missin' home
只有在乡愁涌动时才痛恨旅途遥远
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在已然放手后才始知那是真爱
And you let her go
但真爱已逝
Staring at the bottom of your glass
酒杯已空 醉然疑视
Hoping one day you'll make a dream last
希望有一天，你能让梦持续
But dreams come slow and they go so fast
但是梦想来的太慢，走得太快
You see her when you close your eyes
闭上双眼，整个脑海都是你
Maybe one day you'll understand why
也许有一天，你会明白
Everything you touch surely dies
自己是如何亲手毁掉了一段爱情
But you only need the light when it's burning low
但是你只需要朦胧暗淡时的光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地时才怀念阳光温暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身处低谷时才遥想过去峥嵘
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
只有在乡愁涌动时才痛恨旅途遥远
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
Staring at the ceiling in the dark
繁星满天 你痴痴的望着天花板
Same old empty feeling in your heart
又是一个无比寂寞空虚的无眠夜
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast
爱情来的太慢，走得太快
Well you see her when you fall asleep
如今你只得在梦里与她相见
But never to touch and never to keep
可这梦脆弱的经不起触碰 经不起长久
'Cause you loved her too much
你爱她越深
And you dived too deep
你亦而陷的越深
Well you only need the light when it's burning low
但是你只需要朦胧暗淡时的光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地时才怀念阳光温暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身处低谷时才遥想过去峥嵘
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
只有在乡愁涌动时才痛恨旅途遥远
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
And you let her go
但真爱已逝
And you let her go
但真爱已逝
Well you let her go
但真爱已逝
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦胧黯淡时才念及灯火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地时才怀念阳光温暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身处低谷时才遥想过去峥嵘
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
只有在乡愁涌动时才痛恨旅途遥远
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
'Cause you only need the light when it's burning low
只有在朦胧黯淡时才念及灯火光亮
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
只有在冰天雪地时才怀念阳光温暖
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
只有在身处低谷时才遥想过去峥嵘
Only hate the road when you're missin' home
只有在乡愁涌动时才痛恨旅途遥远
Only know you love her when you let her go
只有在让她走之后才始知那是真爱
And you let her go
但真爱已逝
