[Verse 1]

Along she came with her picture

Put it in a frame so I won’t miss her

Got on a plane from London Heathrow

Seems such a shame, yeah

[Chorus]

I feel her slipping through my fingers

Now she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

And sharks swim through my veins

Now that she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

[Verse 2]

Heard she’s engaged

But to her best friend

No one’s to blame

Here’s where it all ends

And I feel the pain

Cause I’m without her

I feel the pain, yeah

[Chorus]

I feel her slipping through my fingers

Now she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

And sharks swim through my veins

Now that she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

[Bridge]

She’s the type with a different life

Words cannot describe the way I’m feeling

Cause I’ve been searching in my head

For the words I thought she said

For too long

[Chorus]

I feel her slipping through my fingers

Now she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

And sharks swim through my veins

Now that she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

[Instrumental]

Yeah, yeah

[Chorus/Outro]

I feel her slipping through my fingers

Now she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

And sharks swim through my veins

Now that she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

I feel her slipping through my fingers

Now she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on

And sharks swim through my veins

Now that she’s gone

I’m sleeping with the light on
