By My Side
Rendy Pandugo Lyrics

The song 'By My Side' by Rendy Pandugo conveys the message of the importance of having someone who is always there for us, no matter what the circumstances may be. The opening lines of the song, "Can you imagine, if the sun didn't shine when you woke" alludes to the thought that if such a significant event as the rising of the sun were to go awry, everything in our lives would be thrown into confusion. This is followed by a comparison, "If I didn't get the letter you wrote", which emphasizes the importance of communication in keeping relationships alive. The artist then shifts to expressing his reliance on this person, stating that he would be lost without them and feeling completely alone.

The chorus of the song is a declaration of love and appreciation for this person, referring to them as the light and the sunshine that comes after dark times. The lines "Baby, you are the light, you are my sunshine, after the dark" are especially emotive, highlighting the fact that this person brings joy in times of despair. Furthermore, the artist describes this person as their heart and their guide, emphasizing their importance in his life.

Finally, the song ends with a repetition of the chorus, emphasizing the importance of staying by each other's side through good times and bad. The song is written from a deeply personal perspective, and the emotional vulnerability in Rendy Pandugo's voice gives the song a raw quality.
