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 children
I'd like to think, I was a friend
So let us begin
I'd like to think, I was your friend
We can start again
In the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of things
I'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 father
And 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 everything
In the light of things
In the light of things
In the light of things
And, Lord, in the light of things, oh
I'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
