Peter Gabriel
In Your Eyes
(11:32)
Accepting all I've done and said
I want to stand and stare again
'til there's nothing left out..
oh, it remains there in your eyes
Whatever comes and goes
I will hear your silent call..
And I will touch this tender wall
'til I know I'm home again..
oh....
In your eyes, in your eyes..
In your eyes, in your eyes..
In your eyes, 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
and all my instincts they return
and the grand facade so soon will burn
without a voice
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
the resolution
in your eyes
of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
I wanna be that complete
in your eyes
I wanna 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 ours to have
I look to return one day
to keep me awake and alive
and all my instincts
they return
and the grand facade so soon will burn
without a voice
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
in your eyes
to a thousand churches
in your eyes
the resolution
in your eyes
of all the fruitless searches
in your eyes
oh, I see the light and the heat
in your eyes
oh, I wanna be that complete
in your eyes
I wanna touch the light, the heat I see
in your eyes..
Accepting all I've done and said
I want to stand and stare again
'til there's nothing left out..
oh, it remains there
in your eyes
whatever comes and goes
oh, it's in your eyes..
I want to stand and stare again
oh, it's in your eyes....

you missed the "churches" lines here.

^^^^^^^^^^^^
"our survival"
: I look to return one day
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"the time with you"
: to keep me awake and alive
i've never heard the 1st and last verse you give; i assume they're on a
version different from the one on the "so" album.
peace,
ellen
