Halo / Walking on Sunshine
Glee Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ohh, remember those walls I built?
Well, baby they're tumblin' down
They didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breakin'
It's the risk that I'm takin'
I ain't never gonna shut you out
New Directions girls:
Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace (I'm walking on sunshine)
You're everything I need and more (Wooah)
It's written all over your face (I'm walking on sunshine)
Baby, I can feel your halo (Wooah)
And don't it feel good!
I can feel your halo, halo, halo
I can see your halo, halo, halo
I can feel your halo, halo, halo (I'm walking on sunshine)
I can see your halo, halo (Wooah)
And don't it feel good!
I used to think maybe you loved me
Now baby, I'm sure
And I just cant wait 'til the day
When you knock on my door
Oh now, now
I'm walking on sunshine, wooah
I'm walking on sunshine, wooah
I'm walking on sunshine, wooah
And don't it feel good!
I can feel your halo, halo, halo (Mercedes: Alright now)
I can feel your halo, halo, halo (Mercedes: Oh yeah)
I can feel your halo, halo, halo (Rachel: Halo)
I can feel your halo, halo, halo (Mercedes: Halo)
Rachel:
I can see your halo...
HALO!
The Glee version of Beyoncé's "Halo" is largely about the sensation of falling in love and being completely consumed by the other person. The first verse sees Rachel singing about how her walls have been broken down and how she can't resist the pull of the romance she's experiencing. She sings about the risk she's taking by being so vulnerable, but that she's willing to keep going anyway. The second verse, sung by the New Directions girls, speaks about how they're completely surrounded by love and the person they're falling for is their saving grace. They declare that they can see the person's halo and that it's written all over their face, indicating that this person is special and pure. The chorus is the most powerful part of the song and involves the girls interacting with Rachel's lead. They sing together about how they can feel the person's halo around them, and that it feels good to be so in love.
Overall, the Glee version of "Halo" is a declaration of love that speaks to the idea of being completely absorbed by someone else, which can be simultaneously terrifying and exhilarating. The experiences of the characters, as well as the vocal delivery by the cast, give the song a strong emotional impact, emphasizing the power of love.

Ohh, remember those walls I built?
I used to have protective walls up around me
Well, baby they're tumblin' down
Those walls are falling apart
They didn't even put up a fight
The walls came down easily
They didn't even make a sound
They fell silently without resistance
It's like I've been awakened
With the walls down, I feel more alive and free
Every rule I had you breakin'
You make me want to break free from the rules I set for myself
It's the risk that I'm takin'
Being vulnerable with you is a big risk for me
I ain't never gonna shut you out
I don't want to push you away and protect myself anymore
Everywhere I'm looking now
I see you everywhere I look
I'm surrounded by your embrace
I feel your love and support all around me

You fulfill all of my needs and desires and then some
It's written all over your face (I'm walking on sunshine)
You can't hide how much you care for me, and it feels amazing
Baby, I can feel your halo (Wooah)
I can sense your goodness and light inside of you
And don't it feel good!
It feels amazing to be with you and love you
I used to think maybe you loved me
I wasn't sure if your feelings for me were real
Now baby, I'm sure
But now I know that you truly love me
And I just cant wait 'til the day
I'm eagerly anticipating the day
When you knock on my door
When you come to me and we can be together
Oh now, now
The moment is near and I'm so excited
