In Your Eyes


"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..."

Peter Gabriel
