ABOUT THIS SONG
There’s no safer feeling than knowing someone you trust is beside you. You feel like you could be anything. Do anything. Siblings can be like that to each other. Parents can be like that to their children. Friends and family. Even pets! Don’t forget you are that for someone. And someone is that for you.
It’s Also About This
I like the harvest season. There’s a comfort in going to bed knowing the farmers are still in the fields working under the lights of the combines. It’s like when you were a kid and you’d fall asleep in the living room while the grownups were still visiting.
And This
You’re a little kid in the big city at the mall with your mom. One minute she’s right beside you. The next she isn’t. Your heart drops into your stomach. Are you all alone now? Will you survive this world you don’t understand? But then you see her again. The gap between what you feel with her and feel without her is what this song is about.
LYRICS
When the morning light shines in your face
I’m gonna be right next to you
When the day is done and the evening fades
I’m gonna be right next to you
I’m gonna be right next to you
If there’s anything that I know is true
I’m gonna be right next to you
When you need somebody who can help you try
I’m gonna be right next to you
If you got a question you can ask me why
I’m gonna be right next to you
I’m gonna be right next to you
If there’s anything that I know is true
I’m gonna be right next to you
Hmm
I’m gonna be right next to you
I’m gonna be right next to you
If there’s anything that I know is true
I’m gonna be right next to you
If there’s anything that I know is true
I’m gonna be right next to you

A grassroots community of supporters like those at Bandcamp help keep the lights on in Aaron’s studio, but also (and more importantly) you will encourage Aaron that what he’s doing is making a difference and that you believe in his music.
