Every morning, I wake up, and you are home
But in your eyes, I see that I'm alone
You've left me with your body in my arms
But I can't feel you anymore - you are gone

I can touch your skin, but you aren't there
Frustration burns in me - it's more than I can bear
I wanna take you in my fists and squeeze the life back into you
But there is nothing I can do - you are gone

And I can hold you in my hands
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone

You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone

I am staring straight into your eyes
You never turn away or tell me lies
But you are with some other man while I am lying next to you
And there is nothing I can do - you are gone

And I can hold you in my hands
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone

And I can hold you in my hands
But you slipped away like a fistful of sand
I can hold you in my hands
But you are gone, you are gone, you are gone

You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You slipped away like a fistful of sand
You are gone, you are gone, you are gone
