All in all, I think the song is beautiful and forces reality to emerge from often a blissful love story or from a tragic one. The listener is forced to confront first the definition of “home” and then what this might mean to the listener personally, simply enhancing the theme of seizing your opportunity. The chorus also has a rhyme scheme which is almost all the same ending sound except for “home” which makes the word stick out.

The chorus of the song makes many comparisons between what was and what is, allowing the listener to contemplate what they regret seeing, feeling, or hearing.

Only hate the road when you’re missing home Only know you’ve been high when you’re feeling low Only know you love her when you let her go
In this quote, however, the metaphor of “ too deep” serves on levels because a person can dive, or fall, into sleep just as a person could dive into love.īut you only need the light when it’s burning low Rhyme schemes are also present in every other verse but very slightly. This set of lines also has a rhyme scheme at the end of each line indicating the congruent thoughts and feelings. ‘Cause you loved her too much, and you dived too deep
Nearly every line has tones of regret stricken through it especially in the lines
At the song’s core, it emphasizes how waiting too long to tell someone else how you feel may be too late and that person may have moved on. The song “ Let Her Go“, by Passenger, All the Little Lights, is an extremely popular song as the nature of the song describes a memory that many people can relate to.
