BELIEVING
Lennon Stella and Charles Esten Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't remember how I got here
When my rose coloured glasses disappeared

Sometimes my fingers, they can lose touch
Start letting go of everything I love

When I get the feeling
That my prayers have hit the ceiling
And those darker days
When my faith has lost all meaning
You keep me believing

My fears are safe here, held in your hand
When I'm broken, you put me back together again

All that I once was,
All I could be,
When I've forgotten
Baby you remind me

When I get the feeling
That my prayers have hit the ceiling
And those darker days
When my faith has lost all meaning
You keep me believing

If every red heart, starts feeling blue

All you are for me
Baby, I'll be that for you

When I get the feeling
That my prayers have hit the ceiling
And those darker days
When my faith has lost all meaning
When I get the feeling
That my prayers have hit the ceiling
And those darker days
When my faith has lost all meaning

You keep me believing
You keep me believing





You keep me believing

Overall Meaning

The song "Believing" is a beautiful piece that expresses the singer's gratitude towards someone who has been their source of stability and hope during tough times. Lennon Stella and Charles Esten sing about the highs and lows of life, as well as the importance of having someone who can keep you grounded, motivated, and pushing forward. The lyrics describe how the singer has lost their rose-coloured glasses and is facing challenging days in which they struggle to hold on to the things they love. However, they are grateful that they have someone to turn to in those moments who helps them believe in themselves and in the future.


The chorus of the song is the highlight, where the singers express their doubts, fears, and uncertainties for the future. They talk about how there are times when they feel like their prayers have hit the ceiling and their faith has lost all meaning. The singers appreciate the person in their life who helps them keep the belief alive, even in the darkest of moments. They find solace in the fact that they can confide their fears in that person, and they will be there to hold them and help them stand up again.


Overall, the song is a beautiful tribute to the people in our lives who keep us going through the ups and downs of life. It is a reminder that it is okay to lean on others when you can't stand on your own, and that a little bit of hope can go a long way towards making a tough situation bearable.


Line by Line Meaning

I don't remember how I got here
I have no recollection of how I arrived at my current state


When my rose coloured glasses disappeared
When my optimistic view of the world faded away


Sometimes my fingers, they can lose touch
Occasionally, I lose my ability to connect or remain attached to certain things


Start letting go of everything I love
Begin to release my grip on all the things I hold dear


When I get the feeling
At times when I start sensing


That my prayers have hit the ceiling
That my requests have gone unheard


And those darker days
And during those times when things appear bleak


When my faith has lost all meaning
When my trust and belief have dissipated entirely


You keep me believing
You maintain my faith and trust intact


My fears are safe here, held in your hand
My apprehensions are secure here, protected by you


When I'm broken, you put me back together again
When I'm shattered, you help me patch myself back up


All that I once was, All I could be, When I've forgotten Baby you remind me
You help me recollect who I was, who I could be, when I seem to have forgotten


If every red heart, starts feeling blue
If everyone's compassionate spirit suddenly sinks into despair


All you are for me Baby, I'll be that for you
You provide me with all that I need, and I promise to do the same for you


You keep me believing
You maintain my faith and trust intact


When I get the feeling
At times when I start sensing


That my prayers have hit the ceiling
That my requests have gone unheard


And those darker days
And during those times when things appear bleak


When my faith has lost all meaning
When my trust and belief have dissipated entirely


When I get the feeling
At times when I start sensing


That my prayers have hit the ceiling
That my requests have gone unheard


And those darker days
And during those times when things appear bleak


When my faith has lost all meaning
When my trust and belief have dissipated entirely


You keep me believing
You maintain my faith and trust intact

You keep me believing
If every red heart, starts feeling blue

When my faith has lost all meaning
When I get the feeling
That my prayers have hit the ceiling
And those darker days
When my faith has lost all meaning
You keep me believing
You keep me believing
You keep me believing

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE NASHVILLE!!! AND THIS SONG WITH DECON AND MADDIE IS EVERYTHING!!! I LOVED THE BACKGROUND OF HER LITTLE SISTER'S HARMONY ADDED SO SWEET!!! WOW!!! MY HEART, IT TOOK MY BREATHE AWAY!!! JUST AN AMAZING CONNECTION BETWEEN THE WHOLE CAST OF THIS SHOW, AND TO ME ALL THE MUSIC FROM THE ENTIRE CAST WAS PHENOMENAL!!!! THEY NEED TO BRING BACK NASHVILLE!!!

Kelsey Vere

I never really enjoyed country music until watching this show. I am in love with the music they produce. Why haven't they all been more successful in their own music careers?

Danielle Harrington

Because they have contracts with the show. Once they leave the show, I guarantee every single one will go big! I CANT WAIT!!!

Kelsey Vere

I really hope so Danielle Harrington! A lot of them are extremely talented!! Even with their contracts on the show they could do a lot using the music from Nashville! But noooo they have to make us all wait! Lol

Danielle Harrington

im most excited for Hayden. i had no clue she could even sing until i started the show over the summer! lol. Ive watched all her movies ever since i could remember &never had a clue.

Kelsey Vere
