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.
So darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
oh stand, stand by me
stand by me.
If the sky that we look upon
should tumble and fall
and the mountains should crumble to the sea.
I won't cry, I won't cry,
no I won't shed a tear
just as long as you stand,
stand by me.
And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh stand by me
oh stand now, stand by me, stand by me.
Darlin', darlin', stand by me
oh stand by me
oh stand now, stand by me
stand by me.
Whenever you're in trouble
won't you stand by me,
oh stand by me
