Morphology
light + side + of + the + Force
The components 'light' (commonly metaphorical for good) and 'side' (an aspect or choice) make the general idea of a morally good option reasonably inferable from the words. However, 'the Force' is a culturally specific, idiomatic reference to Star Wars and the phrase carries connotations tied to that source; full understanding therefore depends on prior exposure, so it is not fully transparent.
Etymology
Light side of the Force comes from the Star Wars movies, where the Force is a special power and the light side is the part Jedi use to help and protect others. That's why in the story it stands for 'goodness'.
