AM ED03 (Sad Hike)

HP01

Always Remember was written in 1993 after a holiday romance in Cyprus that burned bright under the stars but ended all too soon. It’s a story of young love, heartbreak, and the bittersweet memories that linger long after goodbye. The song begins with ocean waves before building into a driving modern pop-rock anthem with crisp guitars, pulsing bass, emotive piano, and soaring strings. Lyrically, it captures the raw honesty of love lost — the late-night phone calls, the regret, the tears, and the unshakable memory of lying together on a beach watching shooting stars. Both tender and powerful, Always Remember is a reminder that some goodbyes never leave us.

ALWAYS REMEMBER

[Verse 1]
So now, you're leaving me
Now I'm trapped inside my house of pain
With no doors to escape tonight
I pick up the phone and then I dial your number
But then I'm saying all the things 
that I should keep inside
Please forgive me, I don't blame you, 

]Chorus]
But you're leaving me
So what can I do?
Should I break down and cry?
But that is not what a man's supposed to do
I'll let you walk away
I'm so tired of this pain
But saying goodbye to you is something I didn't want to do

[Verse 2]
Yeah, you were right and I was wrong
Now it's time to write this song
Don't think I blame you, don't you dare
But I'm just dreaming of you here
We were young, oh so young
So many dreams left undone
You were right, I was wrong
Now it's time to carry on
I don't blame you

[Chorus]
But you're leaving me
So what can I do?
Should I break down and cry?
But that is not what a man's supposed to do
I'll let you walk away
I'm so tired of this pain
But saying goodbye to you is something I didn't want to do

[Bridge]
My tears fall at night
I cry for you

[Outro]
Do you remember?
All the times, we shared together
That night, when waves crashed by your side
The stars shining bright
I'll always remember
But it's time to leave again
I'll always remember
I don't blame you, my friend
Someday, somehow, someway
Maybe?
Maybe?

I’m Dean R. Chandler — a London based songwriter, recording artist, and storyteller. My music is rooted in a lifelong search for meaning, weaving together themes of love, loss, faith, alien contact, and humanity’s future.

My upcoming double concept album Human Odyssey (set for release in January 2027) is the culmination of decades of writing and reflection. It’s a narrative journey that begins with a search for God and ends with an encounter with extraterrestrial intelligence — exploring not only what it means to be human, but also where we might be heading as a species. Musically, it draws inspiration from the epic storytelling of Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds, the synth-driven edge of Gary Numan, and the emotional depth of artists like Tori Amos and Chris de Burgh.

I previously released Time Machine – Reflecting Shattered Dreams (2014) and continue to revisit my archive of songs written across 35 years, reimagining them with today’s tools and sounds. Some pieces remain intimate and acoustic, while others expand into dark rock, industrial, or orchestral landscapes — but all are connected by a focus on emotional honesty and cinematic storytelling.

Beyond music, I’m fascinated by the intersection of creativity and technology. I’ve been experimenting with AI-driven composition and production to bring old demos to life and to spark entirely new works. For me, these tools are not replacements for human artistry but extensions of it — ways of unlocking stories and emotions that otherwise might have remained hidden.

At its heart, my work is about connection: to the past, to the future, and to the unseen mysteries of existence. Music, for me, isn’t just entertainment — it’s a chronicle of transformation, a conversation between spirit, science, and sound.
