His songs often deal with issues of sexuality. But, this song is written about Peter Gabrial going back to church (orthodox). Peter Gabriel loves to reference god and he is a strong advocate in Humanitarianism. Next time you are by an orthodox church take a look inside and then listen to the song and it will all make sense to you. This song is not about God. He relates it to churches because Jesus Christ is the Messiah of Humanism and since his death, the establishment has exploited his teachings to impossible matters. In his acoustic version, he squarely gave it away when he mentioned... you and you and you... when speaking of the light and heat in your eyes. This song is about love for humanity and the struggle we all face to help save each other along with the hope and belief that we will accomplish exactly that.... by 2012 of course :-) After the chord, When determining the album's track order, Gabriel wanted to have "In Your Eyes" as the final track, but its prominent bassline meant it had to be placed earlier on the vinyl edition for the phonograph On 10 April 2014, Gabriel performed the song with an extended vocal duet with N'Dour as Gabriel was being inducted into the BAH! He looks into that persons eyes and sees a resolution to the worlds problem. Not even a thousand churches to open this door. Peter Gabriel is best known for his innuendo-filled lyrics. When he says "in your eyes" he is speaking of the icon of the virgin mary which is prominently displayed on the back wall of all othodox church. It features Youssou N'Dour singing a part at the end of the song translated into his native Wolof. I think there is a discussion to this... who are you to think that your interpretation is the only correct one. Cause it was the setting his was at, the advocation he was making that it was clear he wishes for world peace. He is speaking about pure love for humans. My mother actually liked Sledgehammer & this brought me back to my Peter Gabriel CD. Nayrb01 - I just made an account to respond to your comment. "In Your Eyes" is a song by English rock musician Peter Gabriel from his fifth solo album So (1986). I thinking he wanted to wield two to give a double meaning since they both represent the samething. "In Your Eyes" was not released as a single in the UK but was pulled as the third single from Inspired by a trip to a cathedral in Barcelona, Spain, Gabriel wrote lyrics for another The song begins with a sustained keyboard chord from Gabriel.

Solsbury Hill Lyrics; The Book of Love (Magnetic Fields cover) Lyrics; Games Without Frontiers Lyrics; Shock The Monkey Lyrics; Sledgehammer Lyrics; SongMeanings is a place for discussion and discovery. The lack of love for someone just being a human. Hence the line "in your eyes - I see the doorway to a thousand churches" This is not my interpretation but the songwriters. Your Eyes Lyrics: Verse 1 / She fell for me and I just fell in her / K-A-L-U that’s how you spell sinner / I showed her all the right things, Demeanor spelled winner / If the lies made her love me Dear Nayrb01 - I hate to break the news to you. Just because an artist deals with sexuality in some of his songs does not mean that he lacks spirtuality. its about self discovery and love and living in the moment... and guess what, this topic is OPEN for discussion. This is really a simple song to figure out, first just replace the word “love” with GOD. In Your Eyes Songtext von Grimus mit Lyrics, deutscher Übersetzung, Musik-Videos und Liedtexten kostenlos auf Songtexte.com I personally feel this song is about self discovery and a man searching for something and finding that feeling in a significant other as well... not so much the Christian God but more so to do with just love... GOD is LOVE but I have a hard time swallowing the idea that its just about the Christian God and we are complete in HIS eyes... GOD doesnt have eyes. More Peter Gabriel Lyrics.

When you look in to someones eyes, you can sometimes see yourself. Interpret it as you feel... whatever the song means to you, thats what the song means. As with many songwriters, the intentions of his songs can be both obvious and discrete.
