The original version of the song, which featured Taj rapping over the bridge, was released in the fourth quarter of 1992, but did not achieve the same success. Nevertheless it peaked at number 16 on the Hot R&B Singles. Both versions also feature a young Pharrell Williams saying "SWV" during the song.
The song appears on the soundtrack and in the film Free Willy.
Right Here
SWV Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I really like this guy but he's just too blind to see
For real Coko? Dang what you gonna do about that?
I don't know
Sing it to 'em Coko
Yeah Le I'ma do that
I'ma let him know that I ain't going nowhere
And my lovin' is gon' be right here
Lately, there seems to be
Some insecurities
About the way I feel
Where I wanna be
Boy, you know it's with you
No one can do
The things you do to me
Never to be mistaken
Long as it's love we're making
There'll be no hesitating, you and me
That's the way it will be
And I won't leave your side
You should know
Love will be right here, be right here
Right here, be right here
(Don't you have no) No fear (no fear), have no fear
(Don't shed) no tears (no tears), love is here
True love some don't believe in
That's just what I'm giving
I'm gonna keep it strong
I'll be holding on to you
No on can do me like you do
It's true
Sure as the sun is shining
Our love will keep on climbing
There's gonna be some rain
Gonna be some pain
But as long as I know
Boy, time will show
Our love will grow, and I know
Love will be right here, be right here (be right here)
Right here, be right here
(You don't need to have no)
No fear (no fear), have no fear
(And don't you have no) no tears
Love will be
Right here, be right here (my love's gonna be right here)
Right here, be right here
(You don't need to have no)
No fear (no fear), have no fear
(Don't you shed no) no tears, love is here
Won't let go
You should know
This thing is real
No questions
Just listen to you heart and
Love will be right
Baby, what's the problem?
It's seems like we're having trouble
You don't seem to understand
The life I lead ain't double
My heart belongs to you, and only you
And you know it's true
A phony imitation just won't do
Relax your mind
I'm not the kind who runs around and waste my time
Other fine brothers just don't compare
I'll be there, I swear, far or near, have no fear
I don't care, you can count on me, I'm right here
Right here, be right here (be right here)
Right here, be right here
(You don't need to have no)
No fear (no fear), have no fear
(Don't you shed no) No tears (no tears)
Love is here
Right here, be right here (my love's gonna be right here)
Right here, be right here (I ain't going nowhere)
No fear (no fear), have no fear
(Don't you shed no) no tears
Love will be
Right here
Love's gonna be, love's gonna be (my love's gonna be)
Love's gonna be, love's gonna be (my love's gonna be)
Love's gonna be, love's gonna be (my love's gonna be)
Be right here
No fear (no fear)
Love's gonna be, love's gonna be
Love's gonna be, love's gonna be (don't you shed)
No tears
Love is here (love's gonna be right here)

You donโt realize how much time has passed by until, you hear songs from the late 80โs or 90โs. And Micheal voice brings this song together. Almost brought tears to my eyes.
