H.O.L.Y
Florida Georgia Line Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the sun had left and the winter came
And the sky fall could only bring the rain
I sat in darkness, all broken hearted
I couldn't find a day I didn't feel alone
I never meant to cry, started losing hope
But somehow baby, you broke through and saved me

You're an angel, tell me you're never leaving
'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in

You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you

You made the brightest days from the darkest nights
You're the river bank where I was baptized
Cleanse all the demons
That were killing my freedom
Let me lay you down, give me to ya
Get you singing babe, hallelujah
We'll be touching, we'll be touching heaven

You're an angel, tell me you're never leaving
'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in

You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you

I don't need the stars 'cause you shine for me
Like fire in my veins, you're my ecstasy
You're my ecstasy

You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you
You're holy, holy, holy, holy
I'm high on loving you, high on loving you

You're the healing hands where it used to hurt
You're my saving grace, you're my kind of church





You're holy

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of “H.O.L.Y” by Florida Georgia Line are deeply emotional and poetic. The song is all about finding someone who saves you from the darkness and lifts you up into the light. In the beginning, the artist talks about how he was feeling hopeless and alone until that special someone came into his life. It’s clear that the person he’s singing about has had a profound impact on his life – he talks about them as if they’re an angel, someone who has lifted him out of a dark place and given him hope.


The chorus is especially powerful – the repetition of “holy” emphasizes just how much this person means to the singer. He’s “high on loving you” and can’t get enough of this feeling; this person is his salvation, the light in his darkest hours. The second verse is just as powerful as the first, emphasizing the role that this person has played in bringing light into the singer’s life. The bridge of the song is especially powerful, with its reference to “healing hands” and “saving grace” – this person is almost a religious experience for the singer.


Overall, “H.O.L.Y” is a deeply moving song about finding someone who brings light into your life, and the role that love can play in healing even the darkest wounds.


Line by Line Meaning

When the sun had left and the winter came
During a time of darkness and coldness, without hope


And the sky fall could only bring the rain
And even the slightest bit of hope would be destroyed by downfall


I sat in darkness, all broken hearted
Feeling heartbroken, helpless in the dark


I couldn't find a day I didn't feel alone
Feeling lonely every single day, unable to escape it


I never meant to cry, started losing hope
Not intending to cry, but losing all hope


But somehow baby, you broke through and saved me
But unexpectedly, you showed up and saved me


You're an angel, tell me you're never leaving
You're like an angel to me, please don't ever leave


'Cause you're the first thing I know I can believe in
Because you're the first thing I can trust and believe in


You're holy, holy, holy, holy
You're sacred and divine, beyond comparison


I'm high on loving you, high on loving you
I'm exhilarated and filled with joy because of my love for you


You made the brightest days from the darkest nights
You turned the worst times into the best times for me


You're the river bank where I was baptized
You symbolize where I found peace and rebirth


Cleanse all the demons
Remove all my inner demons and cleanse my soul


That were killing my freedom
That were suffocating and hindering my freedom


Let me lay you down, give me to ya
Let me lay next to you, give myself to you


Get you singing babe, hallelujah
Make you sing hallelujah, a song of praise and joy


We'll be touching, we'll be touching heaven
We'll feel like we're in heaven when we're together


I don't need the stars 'cause you shine for me
I don't need anything else because you brighten up my life


Like fire in my veins, you're my ecstasy
You give me an intense and thrilling feeling, like fire in my veins


You're the healing hands where it used to hurt
You're the one who healed my emotional pain


You're my saving grace, you're my kind of church
You're the one who saved me from my troubles, my sanctuary and place of worship


You're holy
You're divine and sacred, beyond comparison
