Story Behind The Song
Simen had a book of titles and the one that struck me as unique and caused a question was "Sleeping With The Light On". The collaboration joyfully flew from there.

Lyrics
With The Light On ©2004
(by: Simen Fjeld and a girl named jaen)
V: She?s sleeping with the light on
She looks all worn out
Does she know she?s on display
That I cannot turn away
I cannot turn away
V: She?s getting lucky with the light on
But staring at the wall
Is she in an unfamiliar play
In an unfamiliar headspace
As night turns into day
B: Sometimes she pulls the shades down in the middle of the day
I have to wait till night to see if everything?s okay
Is everything okay
V: She?s dancing with the light on
Doesn?t touch the ground
Once again she?s on display
And I cannot turn away
I cannot turn away
She?s sleeping with the light on (cannot turn away)
Getting lucky with the light on (cannot turn away)
She?s dancing with the light on (cannot turn away)
Everything is with the light on (cannot turn away)
She?s sleeping getting lucky dancing everything is
She?s sleeping getting lucky dancing everything is
With the light on
