"Always on Your Side" is a song by American singer-songwriter Sheryl Crow, and is featured on her 2005 album, Wildflower. It was released as the second single from the album (see 2006 in music). While the album version features only herself, the radio version is a duet with British musician Sting.

The song debuted at #35 on the Billboard Hot 100, her third highest debut - a much higher position than "Good Is Good"'s peak spot. The single also peaked in the top 20 of the UK airplay chart, while the single debuted and peaked at No. 8.
