"See a Little Light" is a 1989 song by alternative rock musician Bob Mould for his debut solo album Workbook.

Written by Mould about his optimism after the break-up of his previous band, Hüsker Dü, the song features relatively upbeat lyrics and a light arrangement highlighted by clean electric guitar and cello.

It has since received positive reception from critics and has served as the title for Mould's memoir.

"See a Little Light" was written by Mould in 1988, a period he spent alone in Pine City, Minnesota after the break-up of his previous band, Hüsker Dü.

I wouldn't say my relationship at the time was hopeless, but it was pretty far out of reach that anything positive would come.

Heather Phares of AllMusic called the song "excellent" and said that it was among the songs on the Never Mind the Mainstream album that "retain their status as underground classics yet still sound fresh, aging far more gracefully than the grunge and nu-metal that supplanted them.
