I Saw the Light es una canción que pretende imitar el pop de los 60's y homenajear a Carole King. Sin duda alguna es un tema hecho para ser un tremendo Hit dentro del álbum que sigue la tradición Motown, la cual consiste en poner los hits al principio del disco.
Desde el comienzo, la canción nos atrapa en la tensión impuesta por el riff de guitarra. La batería, el teclado y el bajo entran fuerte poniendo un ritmo tranquilo y vivo. La voz, la maravillosa voz, nos sumerge en la historia que va cantando. Rundgren entrega una perfecta melodía pop en todos los aspectos; Intro- Verso-Coro-Verso-Coro-Solo de Guitarra-Verso-Coro-Fadeout.
Es momento de hablar del magnífico solo de guitarra. El segundo coro es el detonante para ceder en el camino del solo, las cuerdas altas de la guitarra entran rebanando sueva sosteniéndose en la tercer nota que da, deslizándose uno compases mas para después doblar las cuerdas de guitarra y despedirse en alto volviendo de nuevo al Verso.
It was late last night
I was feeling something wasnt right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you
So we walked along,
Though I knew there was something wrong
And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you
Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
cause I saw the light in your eyes
Though we had our fling
I just never would suspect a thing
til that little bell began to ring in my head
In my head
But I tried to run,
Though I knew it wouldnt help me none
cause I couldnt ever love no one, or so I said
But my feelings for you
Were just something I never knew
til I saw the light in your eyes
But I love you best
Its not something that I say in jest (ha ha)
cause youre different, girl, from all the rest
In my eyes
And I ran out before but I wont do it anymore
Cant you see the light in my eyes
I was feeling something wasnt right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you
So we walked along,
Though I knew there was something wrong
And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you
Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
cause I saw the light in your eyes
Though we had our fling
I just never would suspect a thing
til that little bell began to ring in my head
In my head
But I tried to run,
Though I knew it wouldnt help me none
cause I couldnt ever love no one, or so I said
But my feelings for you
Were just something I never knew
til I saw the light in your eyes
But I love you best
Its not something that I say in jest (ha ha)
cause youre different, girl, from all the rest
In my eyes
And I ran out before but I wont do it anymore
Cant you see the light in my eyes
