Halo
★Beyonce Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Remember those walls I built
Well, baby, they're tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound

I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breaking
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light

I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't begin
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breaking
The risk that I'm taking
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
Halo, halo
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby, I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace

You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby, I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo
I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo

I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo




I can feel your halo (halo) halo
I can see your halo (halo) halo

Overall Meaning

"Halo" by Beyonce is a love song that celebrates the healing powers of a soulmate. The opening lines “Remember those walls I built, Well baby they're tumbling down, And they didn't even put up a fight, They didn't even make up a sound” suggest that Beyonce has been protecting herself with emotional walls after a painful experience in her past. Yet, as she falls in love with her partner, her walls crumble and everything she's been guarding herself against vanishes.


Beyonce then sings, “It's like I've been awakened, Every rule I had you breakin', It's the risk that I'm taking, I ain't never gonna shut you out”. By accepting the love of her partner, Beyonce feels that she has come back to life, and in doing so, she's found a new power within herself that she never knew existed. She goes on to explain how she has been affected by her partner's presence in her life, saying, "Everywhere I'm looking now, I'm surrounded by your embrace, Baby, I can see your halo, You know you're my saving grace."


Line by Line Meaning

Remember those walls I built
I had constructed emotional barriers to protect myself from being hurt again


Well, baby, they're tumbling down
But because of you, those walls have come crashing down effortlessly


And they didn't even put up a fight
There was no resistance from my walls because I knew deep down I wanted to let you in


They didn't even make a sound
The walls fell so silently because I was ready and willing to let you break through them


I found a way to let you win
I have opened myself up to you and allowed our relationship to flourish


But I never really had a doubt
Despite my fears and reservations, I always knew that you were worth the risk


Standing in the light of your halo
Being in your presence and feeling your love makes me feel uplifted and protected


I got my angel now
You are my guardian angel, my source of comfort and strength


Everywhere I'm looking now
You are constantly on my mind and I see your influence everywhere in my life


I'm surrounded by your embrace
Your love and support envelops me completely and brings me peace


Baby, I can see your halo
Your goodness and beauty shine bright, like an aura of light around you


You know you're my saving grace
You are the one who has saved me from a life of pain and loneliness


You're everything I need and more
You have exceeded my expectations and are everything I could ever want from a partner


It's written all over your face
Your love and affection are clear and obvious to me, just by looking at you


Baby, I can feel your halo
Your love is tangible and I can physically feel its warmth and protection


Pray it won't fade away
I hope that our love will last and stay strong, without ever losing its intensity


Hit me like a ray of sun
Your love was sudden and unexpected, but it filled my life with brightness and warmth


Burning through my darkest night
You helped me overcome my darkest moments and gave me the strength to keep going


You're the only one that I want
I only desire to be with you and nobody else


Think I'm addicted to your light
Your love has become like a drug, and I cannot imagine my life without it


I swore I'd never fall again
I promised myself that I would never be vulnerable to someone again after being hurt in the past


But this don't even feel like falling
But with you, opening up and loving you doesn't feel like a risk or falling, because it feels so natural


Gravity can't forget
Despite my attempts to resist falling in love, my attraction to you is too strong


To pull me back to the ground again
Even though loving you is like flying, the reality is that I'm still living in the real world with its struggles and hardships
