I Think I See The Light
Yusuf/Cat Stevens Lyrics

I used to trust nobody
I had been let down by so many people in the past that I stopped trusting anyone.

Trusting even less their words
I not only stopped trusting people, but I also stopped believing their promises and assurances.

Until I found somebody
However, when I met someone special, everything started to change.

There was no one I preferred
This person became my favorite, and I started to rely on them more and more.

My heart was made of stone
Before meeting this person, I had a cold and unfeeling heart.

My eyes saw only misty gray
I couldn't see the beauty and wonder of the world around me; everything was dull and lifeless.

Until you came into my life
But this special person changed everything by entering my life.

I saw everyone that way
My pessimism and mistrust had colored the way I saw everyone, and I couldn't see beyond their flaws and shortcomings.

I think I see the light
But now, everything is starting to change, and I am starting to see things in a new way.

I used to walk alone
In the past, I would wander aimlessly by myself with no one to turn to.

Every step seemed the same
My life lacked excitement and passion, and every day felt the same as the one before it.

This world was not my home
I felt disconnected from the world around me and didn't feel like I belonged here.

So there was nothing much to gain
Because of my pessimism and feelings of disconnectedness, I didn't feel like there was anything to strive for or achieve.

Look up and see the clouds
But since meeting this special person, I can now find joy and wonder in the simplest things, like looking up at the clouds.

Look down and see the cold floor
Even mundane things like looking down at the ground can now bring me some level of comfort or happiness.

Coming to me, coming through me
I'm starting to feel like this newfound sense of joy and wonder is permeating through every aspect of my life.

Giving me a second sight
By changing my perspective and outlook on life, this special person has given me a new way of seeing things and experiencing the world.

Keep on shining
And as long as this person is in my life, I know that things will only continue to get brighter.
