When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we’ll see
No, I won’t be afraid
No, I won’t be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Refrain:]
So darling, darling
Stand by me
(Won’t you stand, stand by me)
Oh, stand by me
(Won’t you stand, stand by me)
Oh, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
[VeRsE 2:]
If the sky we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or a mountain should crumble to the sea
I won’t cry, I won’t cry
I won’t she no tear
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Refrain:]
So darling, darling
Stand by me
(Won’t you stand, stand by me)
