Visions
Bebe Rexha Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can read the signs waiting in your eyes (you cannot hide, oh)
How do you sleep in your bed of lies? (Oh-oh)
I saw you in a dream you were waving goodbye (i think I cried, oh)
I've been holding my breath, for the longest time, 'ime

The truth might break us
Only love can save us, so
Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go (go, go)
Stay with me, stay with me
'Cause I need you close (close, close)
Every second you're gone my whole world turns cold (cold, cold)
Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go (go)

I've been feeling low might have got too high (my mind, my mind, oh)
All I see are visions of another life (oh-oh)
Standing in the eye of a hurricane (can't stop the wave, oh)
I pray to wash away your pain, 'ain

The truth is dangerous
I don't wanna face it, so

Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go (go, go)
Stay with me, stay with me
'Cause I need you close (close, close)
Every second you're gone my whole world turns cold (cold, cold)
Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go

Nothing in this world I wouldn't do
Nothing in this world that feels like that you (ah)
Yeah you got me floating on the floor
Yeah you always leave me wanting more

Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go (go, go)
Stay with me, stay with me
'Cause I need you close (close, close)
I need you close, I need you close
Every second you're gone my whole world turns cold (cold, cold, yeah)
Baby please, baby please
Baby, please don't go





Baby, please don't go

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Bebe Rexha's song "Visions" convey a sense of longing, vulnerability, and desperation in a relationship. The singer seems to have a deep understanding of their partner's emotions and can read their true feelings through their eyes. However, they also suspect that their partner is hiding something—a bed of lies that they sleep in. The singer had a dream in which their partner waved goodbye, a vision that left them feeling emotional and uncertain. They have been holding their breath, waiting for too long, indicating their patience is running out.


The chorus reveals that the truth has the potential to break them, but it is love that can save their relationship. The singer pleads with their partner not to go and begs them to stay close because their absence leaves their world feeling cold. The second verse suggests that the singer may have been feeling low but had temporarily found solace in an alternate reality—one where they envisioned a different life. They find themselves at the eye of a hurricane, a metaphor for chaos and uncertainty, and they pray for their partner's pain to be washed away.


The bridge expresses the singer's willingness to do anything for their partner and admits to feeling a distinct connection. Their partner has a way of leaving them wanting more, keeping them in a floating state, unable to resist their allure. The song ends with another plea, begging their partner once again not to go.


Overall, "Visions" explores the complexities of a tumultuous relationship, where the fear of facing the truth and the overwhelming need for love collide.
