By The Sea

Oh
Oh

Ever I leave you, I’ll be just fine
Ever I disappear to clear my mind
Should you chance to call my name into the night
Or wake in the morning and I’m not in sight
It’s alright, I’m alright
I see the light
I’ll wait for you, mm mm

Cause I’m going where I’ve been called to be
I’m loving you beyond the veil and through the breeze
You may not see me, but I’ve got you by the hand and by the back
I’ll guide you through

Oh
Oh

Ever you find yourself afraid of the dark
Ever you write a note and I not hark
Should you chance to walk between the living and the dead
Or lie upon the ground and crave my hands upon your head
It’s alright, I’m alright
I see the light
I’ll wait for you, mm mm

Cause I’m going where I’ve been called to be
My love for you is constant and will never cease, and when I go
You cannot come with me, but I will comfort you and wait by the sea

I’ll wait, I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait, I’ll wait for you
I’ll wait

Oh
Oh

Cause I’m going where I’ve been called to be
I’m loving you beyond the veil and through the breeze
You may not see me, but I’ve got you by the hand and by the back
I’ll guide you through

Cause I know now where I’ve been
My love for you is constant and will never cease, and when I go
You cannot come with me, but I will comfort you and wait by the sea
About New Album

By The Sea

 

“By The Sea” is a tender promise spoken from the other side of loss—a message from someone who has passed on, offering comfort to the one they left behind. It’s a song about love that doesn’t end with goodbye, and the quiet assurance that even in absence, someone can still be near.

 

With imagery both haunting and peaceful, the narrator pledges to remain a steady presence—guiding, protecting, and waiting “by the sea” until the day they are reunited.

 

“By The Sea” blends Indie Folk and Americana with MAKIE’s signature storytelling style, creating a timeless listening experience for anyone who has loved deeply and felt the ache of letting go. Recorded in Los Angeles, the track carries a cinematic stillness—like waves rolling in, again and again—reminding listeners that love has a way of lingering long after someone is gone.

 

At its heart, “By The Sea” is a song of comfort: a hand on your back, a voice in the dark, and a promise that you are never truly alone.
