Faithfully
Lea Michele; Cory Monteith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Highway run
Into the midnight sun.
Wheels go 'round and 'round
You're on my mind.

Restless hearts
Sleep alone tonight.
Sendin' all my love
Along the wire.

They say that the road
Ain't no place to start a family.
Right down the line
It's been you and me.
And lovin' a music man
Ain't always what it's supposed to be.

Oh boy, you stand by me

I'm forever yours
Faithfully.

Circus life
Under the big top world

We all need the clowns
To make us smile

Ooh
Through space and time

Through space and time

Always another show,
Wondering where I am
Lost without you.

And being apart
Ain't easy on this love affair.
Two strangers
Learn to fall in love again.
I get the joy of rediscovering you

Oh girl, you stand by me.

I'm forever yours
Faithfully.

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Faithfully

Faithfully
I'm still yours.

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I'm still yours

Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh





I'm still yours
Faithfully.

Overall Meaning

The song 'Faithfully' by Lea Michele and the late Cory Monteith is a tribute to the love that perseveres even when circumstances make things difficult. The song is about a musician who is often away from his muse, his partner, and is filled with longing and love for her. The singer intends to send her his love through the wire, encouraging her to remain faithful to him.


The lyrics are poetic and the imagery of the road is used to convey the theme of distance and perseverance. The highway represents their shared journey through life, while the midnight sun suggests the fleeting nature of life or difficult moments in their relationship. The line 'restless hearts sleep alone tonight' suggests that both the singer and the musician are struggling with being apart from each other, and that their love is what holds them together.


Overall, the song is a powerful testament to the power of love and perseverance to endure even in difficult circumstances. It is a touching tribute to love and the people who remain faithful to their partners through thick and thin.
