Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When the night has come
And the land, it is dark
And the moon is the only light that we see
No, I won't be afraid
No, I won't be afraid
Just as long, just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Verse 2]
If the sky we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble into the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, and I won't shed a tear
Just as long, just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Verse 3]
So darling, darling stand, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, my darling, please stand by me
[Verse 4]
If the sky we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains should crumble into the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long, just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Verse 5]
So darling, darling stand, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, please stand by me
Whenever I'm in trouble won't you stand, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, darling, please stand by me
