In Your Eyes
by Peter Gabriel (from: So)
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 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
