Your Side
Maygen Lacey Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

He came from a life that was constant with change
No end, no rest
Always waiting for the shoe to drop
And it always did
Something changed when he met that girl
the way she said,""you're gonna be alright""
Breathe slowly, slowly
Take my hand, squeeze just as hard as you need
I'm not going, going
In this place of uncertainty, know this
I'm not leaving your side
They built a home, had a couple of children
No end, no rest
Times were tough and the bills were stacking up
Sick with worry, she came to him on a sleepless night
Said""rest assured, we're gonna be alright""
Breathe slowly, slowly
Take my hand, squeeze just as hard as you need
I'm not going, going
In this place of uncertainty, know this
I'm not leaving your side
He turned to her, eyes welled with tears
Said I don’t know how deserve you
All I know is after all these years
You've been the reason I get through
No matter the season, we make our way
I love you forever, it's my turn to say
Breathe slowly, slowly
Take my hand, squeeze just as long as you need
I'm not going, going
In this life of uncertainty, know this

I'm not leaving your side
I’m never leaving your side
