See Forever Eyes is the second studio album by the Canadian rock band Prism. It was originally released in 1978 by the Canadian record label, GRT. The album was recorded over a period of five months in 1978, at Mushroom Studios, Vancouver, at Little Mountain Sound Studios, Vancouver, and at Pinewood Studios. It was produced by the future multi-award winning producer Bruce Fairbairn.

The album was received negatively by the majority of music critics, while other reviewers noted good points to the album. It was also a commercial disappointment, peaking at number 158 on the Billboard 200. However, Prism found some moderate success with the aforementioned song "Flyin'". The single peaked at 53 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Composition

The songs "N-N-N-No!" and "You're Like The Wind" were both credited to Jim Vallance under the pseudonym Rodney Higgs as their songwriter. Their bassist Allan Harlow contributed two songs, "Flyin'" and "Take Me Away". And their keyboardist John Hall and guitarist Lindsay Mitchell joined together to write the title track "See Forever Eyes".
