I'd like to think, I was a lover
If I could ever bring us back together
I'd like to think, I was a father
If I could get together with my childrenI'd like to think, I was a friend
So let us begin
I'd like to think, I was your friend
We can start againIn the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of thingsI'd like to think, I was a thinker
If I could even get my thoughts together
I, I'd like to think, I was still a child
If I could get together with my fatherAnd I'd like to think that I can see
Right in front of me
I'd like to think that I can breathe
Breathe in everythingIn the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of things
And, Lord, in the light of things, ohI'd like to think, I was a lover
If I could ever bring us back together
If I could ever bring us back together
If I could ever bring us back together
