"In Your Eyes" was performed by Peter Gabriel in 1986. This song was used in the 1989 film "Say Anything " a sweet movie I might add , I just remember when John Cusack held the radio up above his head and serenaded his girlfriend with this song. A great song, another great eighties hit. Gosh they made good music back in the day. What I personally love about this song is the build up , you know those songs that just build up to a grand chorus, well that's one of those. Very nice lyrics . The eyes truly are the windows to the soul , you can tell so much about a person just by looking into their eyes...There are Kind Eyes, Evil Eyes , public eyes, private eyes ...okay I'm going off the topic now.
Anyway check out the lyrics
love I get so lost, sometimes
days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
when I want to run away
I drive off in my car
but whichever way I go
I come back to the place you are
all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light
the heat I see in your eyes
love, I don't like to see so much pain
so much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away
I get so tired of working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive
and all my instincts, they return
and the grand facade, so soon will burn
without a noise, without my pride
I reach out from the inside
in your eyes
the light the heat
in your eyes
I am complete
in your eyes
I see the doorway to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I want to be that complete
I want to touch the light,
the heat I see in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
in your eyes in your eyes
And the Video .....
