‘Vision of Love’ Lyrics by Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey’s ‘Vision of Love’ is a song about a love that is enduring and endless. The first verse is about a man that has been in love with his lover for a long time, and despite their many disagreements, they can’t seem to stop loving one another.

A woman who is in love with a man who is not her husband. In the song, Mariah sings about how the woman is in love with a man who she has never seen, but has only seen his “vision of love.” Mariah sings that if the man falls in love with her, he will see her as his true love and she will love him that way too.

‘Vision of Love’ by Mariah Carey Lyrics

This wasn’t supposed to happen
I was happy by myself
Accidentally you seduced me
I’m in love again

I lie in my bed, totally still
My eyes wide open, I’m in rapture
I don’t believe this, I’m in love again
This wasn’t supposed to happen
I’ve been hit with your charm
How could you do this to me?
I’m in love again

I lie in my bed, totally still
My eyes wide open, I’m in rapture
I don’t believe this, I’m in love again
This wasn’t supposed to happen
This wasn’t supposed to happen

Ég og hann, ég og hann við segjum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til
Ég og hann, ég og hann við segjum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til

A small story which never happened
I said ouch! This really hurts
That can’t be this has been
Practiced for millions of years
Therefore we are
Yes, but I, I’m a boy
A small story which always happens
I said ouch! This really hurts
This could well be
But this has
Been practiced for millions of years
Therefore we are
Yes, but, you’re a girl

I lie in my bed, totally still
My eyes wide open, I’m in rapture
I don’t believe this, I’m in love again
This wasn’t supposed to happen

I lie in my bed, totally still
My eyes wide open, I’m in rapture
You’ve put a seed inside me
And while you’re away
It’s growing silently
Starts in my stomach (to be a life)
Embraces my insides
And about to reach my heart
This wasn’t supposed to happen
This wasn’t supposed to happen

Ég og hann, ég og hann við segjum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til
Ég og hann, ég og hann við bítum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til
This really hurts
Ég og hann, ég og hann við bítum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til
Ég og hann, ég og hann við bítum
Ég og hann, ég og hann við finnum til
