Q:
O que significa thats why we were always worried about you when you would go?
A:
The sentence is in the past tense.
You are wrong to think "always" = present tense. "Always" isn't a tense. You can use always in a number of tenses - "I always loved you" (past) "I have always loved you" (perfect) "I always get up at seven-thirty" (present) "I will always love you" (future)
You are wrong to think "would" is always the future tense. "Would" can be used to mean past, habitual actions. For example "When I was a boy I would go fishing with grandpa." (="When I was a boy I used to go fishing with grandpa)
So here "when you would go" means the same as "when you used to go"

I'm not sure why they worded it this way at the end. It's not common to say "a little" at the end of a statement like this. Maybe it was on Twitter and they were trying to fit it within the character limit.
