(    )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

(     )You see her when you close your eyes
Maybe one day you'll understand why
Everything you touch surely dies

(    )Only 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

(    )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

(     )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

(     )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

(    )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

(     )Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause love comes slow and it goes so fast


(    )Only 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 go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
And you let her go (oh, oh, ooh, oh no)
Will 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

(    )'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

(    )'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 missin' home
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 missin' home
Only know you love her when you let her go
And you let her go

Halloween vs day of the dead





Day of the Dead vs Halloween


Day of the Dead is a Mexican traditional holiday that honors ancestors, family members, and friends who have passed away.

The holiday takes place on November 2nd, in connection with the Catholic holiday of All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day.

Day of the Dead falls closely to Halloween, but is celebrated on a larger scale—Mexicans embrace it as a festive occasion.

Though both of these holidays have combined with Catholicism, they are very different. Celebrations of Halloween come from the idea that the dead are to be feared; children wear costumes as protection and jack-o-lanterns are supposed to ward off evil spirits.

By contrast, in Day of the Dead celebrations, the spirits of departed loved ones are welcomed into the home and cemeteries. Death is portrayed as something natural and normal.
