"I see the stars in your eyes
        everytime I look deeply into them...
        and I miss looking deeply into your eyes...
        miss it so..."

        IN YOUR EYES
        Peter Gabriel

        D-Bm        D        G		    D
        
          Accepting all I've done and said
        
        Bm          D         G             D
        
          I want to stand and stare again
        
        Bm             D       G           D
        
          'til there's nothing left out..
        
        Bm           D          G             D
        
           oh, it remains there in your eyes
        
        Bm          D         G      D
        
           Whatever comes and goes
        
        Bm        D         G              D
        
           I will hear your silent call..
        
        Bm            D          G           D  
        
           And I will touch this tender wall
        
        Bm        D        G
        
           'til I know I'm home again..
           oh....
        Verse:
        Bm  D  G  D 
        
        In your eyes, in your eyes..
        
        In your eyes, in your eyes..
        
        In your eyes, in your eyes..
        Bm	 D       G                 D  Bm 
        
        Love,  I get so  lost sometimes...
        
                           D         G
        
        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..
        
        G  D    A
        
        In your eyes
        
                      D
        
        the light the heat
        
        G  D    A  
        
        in your eyes
        
                 D  
        
        I am complete
        
        G  D    A
        
        in your eyes
        
                 D
        
        the resolution
        
        G  D    A         
        
        in your eyes
        
                             D
        
        of all the fruitless searches
        
        G  D    A 
        
        in your eyes
        
                                D
        
        I see the light and the heat
        
        G  D    A
        
        in your eyes
        
                            D  
        
        I wanna be that complete
        
        G  D    A
        
        in your eyes
        
                                            D 
        
        I wanna touch the light, the heat I see
        
        G  D    A
        
        in your eyes..
        
                                          D
        
        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
        A  D  G  D  repeats
        
        and All my instinct
        
        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
        
        E      A  
        
        In your eyes
        
        I see the doorway
        
        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....
