“In Your Eyes” features The Weeknd singing in a more vulnerable manner than most of his other hedonistic songs, giving himself up to the feelings he can see in his lover and how that makes him feel. The song, following the flashy disco-influenced “Blinding Lights,” is another transition into the more synth-heavy second half of the record and features a saxophone outro played by Tomas Jannson.
