"In Your Eyes" is a ballad sung by Irish singer Niamh Kavanagh that won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1993 for Ireland with 187 points. The song was written and composed by Jimmy Walsh.

Kavanagh had a home win, since the contest took place in Ireland due to Linda Martin's win the previous year. It was the second of Ireland's three victories in a row in the early nineties. The song was performed fourteenth on the night (following Sweden's Arvingarna with "Eloise" and preceding Luxembourg's Modern Times with "Donne-moi une chance"). At the close of voting, it had received 187 points, placing 1st in a field of 25.

The song was succeeded as winner in 1994 by Paul Harrington and Charlie McGettigan, also representing Ireland, singing "Rock 'n' Roll Kids".

"In Your Eyes" was the best selling single in Ireland for 1993. It also reached No. 24 in the United Kingdom weekly pop charts.

"In Your Eyes" is a love song where the singer tells how, after being lonely, she has found love and heaven in her lover's arms and how it had changed her.
