Right By My Side

Some songs are not about moving on.

They are about learning how to keep going while still carrying someone with you.

“Right By My Side” is a song about the moment when love, grief, fear, and hope all exist in the same breath. It begins in the most fragile place - beside someone you are not ready to lose - and turns into a reminder that presence does not always end when goodbye arrives.

There is pain in this track, but there is also comfort. There is heartbreak, but also strength. The kind of strength that does not come from pretending you are fine, but from hearing the voice of someone you love telling you to keep going.

Musically, it carries that emotional contrast through intimate piano-led verses, soft filtered plucks, and a single vulnerable vocal before opening into a euphoric uplifting trance chorus. The drop is not just energy for the sake of energy. It is release. It is memory becoming light. It is the feeling of someone still walking beside you, even when life asks you to take the next step alone.

For anyone who has ever had to say goodbye before they were ready - this one is for you.

Lyrics

On the day you were taken away I was right beside you But it still wasn’t enough My knees were shaking weak I couldn’t even speak So I whispered "Keep fighting Please fight for yourself" Oh God I don’t think that I can breathe Still I hear you saying to me "It's alright I promise you’ll be fine You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side It’s alright I promise you’ll be fine You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side" And when I wake up Your eyes are still shut But I still feel your warmth, and it’s keeping me strong But I know it’s time I need to say goodbye And even though I’m broken You say "Go on" Oh God I don’t think that I can leave Still I hear you saying to me "It's alright I promise you’ll be fine You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side It’s alright I promise you’ll be fine You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side You’ll be right by my side"
