How The Light Gets In

You refuse to wear my swimmin’ trunks
Cause the style is miles behind
I’m just glad you’re swimmin’
All that healin’ sure takes time
The night you lay there bleedin’
I thought hope was at an end
There’s a crack in my world
Maybe that’s how the light gets in
Maybe that’s how the light gets in

That’s great you made another appointment
Counseling clears your head
Ya told him if not for Chiko
You know you’d be dead
And I fight with the cabernet & say:
“You’re not my best friend”
There’s a crack in my world
Maybe that’s how the light gets in

Maybe the threat of losin’ hope
Is what’s throwin’ me a rope
Maybe the things that are cavin’ in
Are what made me hope again

I hear your voice from out by the pool
Sounds like your grin has reappeared
Since ’91 I wonder
Do the laughs outweigh the tears
While Satan’s countin’ ballots
My loving wife walks in
There’s a crack in her world
Some days I’m not much of a friend
But if we share this world
Maybe that’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in
