Love In Your Eyes
Kajagoogoo & Limahl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Could you always drown the fire?
Keep a check on all you feel
Keep a hold on all your desire.
But I feel there's something new and it's lying in your eyes
There's a shudder running through you
Now I realize.
Inside turning to outside
The feeling you can't hide is touching a high-light
In your eyes.
Inside turning to outside
It's gonna be alright
It's running a high for you and I.
Like a shadow of yourself
like a spirit in the air
Looking desperately for help
You've been looking everywhere.
My heart is beating fast
blue eyes are locked on mine
A vision flashes past
Moving me in time.
Inside turning to outside
And we can live in a beautiful world
Hide away under peaceful skies.
We can survive on time and a word
Feel the nights passing by.
Inside to outside, inside to outside, inside to outside.
Inside turning to outside
Inside turning to outside
Inside turning to outside
The lyrics to Kajagoogoo's Love In Your Eyes are an exploration of the singer's perception of their romantic interest's emotions. The opening lines question whether the person's captivating demeanor can quench their inner passion. The singer then notes that their lover seems to be struggling with something new, represented by a "shudder running through" them. The chorus speaks to the connection between the two, with the lover's feelings becoming visible in their eyes, which are described as a "high-light." The verses continue with the lover's desperation and the singer's own heightened feelings.
The repetition of "inside turning to outside" conveys the singer's belief that their lover's internal emotions are manifesting externally, and that their connection is growing stronger. The idea of "moving in time" suggests a deeper, more spiritual bond between the two. The song ends with the repeated assertion that their lover's internal feelings are becoming visible on the outside.

Did you EVER think you would hear such excellent advice in a pop song??? Kind of impressive, actually, looking back as a 50-year-old woman now.
