Halo
Beyoncè 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 win
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 break it
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 forget
To pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you break it
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

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

In “Halo,” Beyoncé sings about the overwhelming sensation of falling head over heels in love with someone who has illuminated her life, making her feel alive and opening her up to new possibilities. She starts off by describing the walls that she previously had up around her heart due to past experiences with love. But with the arrival of her lover, those walls come tumbling down easily, as if they were never there in the first place. She feels awakened and alive in a way that she never has before. She mentions that every rule she ever had, her lover has broken, but the risk of entering this new love is something she’s willing to take. Beyoncé tells her lover that he/she is the only one she wants and needs.


The chorus repeatedly mentions the word “halo,” which appears to represent her lover’s aura of light, purity, and goodness. He/she has become her guiding light, her “saving grace,” and she’s so enamored that she can see and feel the halo, never wanting it to fade away. The song expresses the idea of vulnerability in love and that it’s okay to let down one’s guard for the right person.
