[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
