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 my fruitless searches In your eyes Oh, 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 my fruitless searches In your eyes Oh, 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

O trecho final da música conta com a participação vocal de Youssou N'Dour, que canta em wolof, refletindo a inspiração africana nas letras de Peter Gabriel.
Embora não tenha sido lançado como single no Reino Unido, “In Your Eyes” foi o segundo single do álbum *So* nos Estados Unidos, onde alcançou o topo do Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks em 13 de setembro de 1986.
O single norte‑americano foi disponibilizado em duas versões de 12 ” de longa duração: a versão single de 6:15 e o “Special Mix” de 7:14, que ficou como faixa B.
A faixa aparece no filme *Say Anything…* (1989), protagonizado por John Cusack e Ione Skye, ampliando seu alcance além do cenário musical.
Durante o *Secret World Tour*, “In Your Eyes” era a última canção do setlist e, no álbum ao vivo *Secret World Live* (1994), sua duração excede 11 min, incorporando os versos do “Special Mix” e solos dos demais músicos.
Em 2005, a música marcou a conquista do primeiro certificado de ouro de Gabriel nos Estados Unidos, reconhecido pela RIAA.
