Visions, that you stir in my soul
Visions, that will never grow old
Sweet baby, I had some visions of you
If I can’t have it all, just a taste will do

Go ahead and live all your fantasies
(Don’t you ever think about the other side?)
Helps you get from where you are
To where you want to be
(You and me oughta be taking a ride)
You do the best you can
And you make your mistakes
(If you don’t like it, you can say that you tried)
‘Cause all I have to give is whatever it takes

Play on, El Chingadero, play on
Play on, El Chingadero

Dance, angel, dance ’til you wear out your blues
(Only thing that’s gonna save you now)
Take another chance, you got nothing to lose
(The boy didn’t love you anyhow)
Girl, you drive me wild when you do what you do
(Something makes me want to take you down)
If I can’t have it all, just a taste will do
Just a taste of you

About Lyrics and Visions by Eagles

The lyrics for Visions are defined as the words making up the song released by Eagles in 1975. It also includes the verses and words used by the background chorus in the song. Like many hit songs, the lyrics to Visions have different meanings to different people. While it is clear in some of the lyrics what the artist is trying to really say, only Eagles and those working with them know all of the meanings behind all of the lyrics to their songs.

Some folks are interested in word and phrase etymology. It is easy to understand the lyrics to Visions by Eagles if you think through it. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Visions" means the words set to the music of Visions, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Eagles. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Visions and the lyrics to Visions are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Eagles who came here looking just for the lyrics to Visions, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
