"In Your Eyes" is a song by English rock musician Peter Gabriel from his 1986 album So. It features Youssou N'Dour singing some choruses translated into his native Wolof. The track was featured in the 1989 teen drama film Say Anything... starring Ione Skye and John Cusack.

"In Your Eyes" was not released as a single in the UK but it was released in the US as the third single from So, achieving strong radio airplay and regular MTV rotation. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks on September, 13 1986. It also peaked at No. 26 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the November. Gabriel released two extended versions of the song as a 12" vinyl single in the US. The first (the Single Mix) ran 6:15. The second (the Special Mix) ran 7:14. In Australia, "In Your Eyes" peaked at No. 97 in November 1986.

The song was the finale of the Secret World Tour and is the final track on the 1994 Secret World Live album, where it is over 11 minutes long and includes the extra lyrics from the Special Mix, in addition to solos by the other singers and players. It was included on the US version of his 2003 compilation Hit, but not on the European or Japanese versions.

In 2005, the song brought Gabriel his first Gold single, certified in the US by the RIAA.

In 1988 (at the end of the 1987 NFL season), NBC Sports used "In Your Eyes" in for the prologue (narrated by Dick Enberg) of the AFC Championship Game between the Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns. Similarly, Fox Sports used "In Your Eyes" for the prologue (narrated in this case by Pat Summerall) for the 1998 NFC Championship Game between the Atlanta Falcons and Minnesota Vikings.
