"In Your Eyes" lyrics

"In Your Eyes"
(originally by Peter Gabriel)

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
I am complete
I see the doorway
Of a thousand churches
The resolution
Of all my fruitless searches
Oh, I see the light and the heat
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
Working so hard for our survival
I look to the time with you
To keep me awake and alive

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
In your eyes
The light the heat
I am complete
I see the doorway
Of a thousand churches
The resolution
Of all my fruitless searches
Oh, I see the light and the heat
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
