The first song and first single from SUNLIGHT, “I Thought It Was You” is best known as the first Herbie Hancock record Herbie ever sang on, with some vocoder assistance.
Just a glance from behind
Happened by chance or design
The perfume she wore
Took me back through a door
I had closed long ago
Suddenly
I thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Remember what we knew
I thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Remember when I thought it was you
We were young love was new
Warm as the sun shining through
In your arms it seemed
I went back to a dream
I had seen long ago
Suddenly
I thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Remember what we knew
I thought it was you
Thought it was you
Thought it was you
Remember when I thought it was you
I Thought It Was You was written by Melvin “Wah Wah” Watson & Jeffrey Cohen & Herbie Hancock.
I Thought It Was You was produced by Herbie Hancock & David Rubinson & Friends, Inc..
