Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
Oh, I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
[Chorus]
So darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand
Stand by me, stand by me
[Verse 2]
If the sky that we look upon (Ooh)
Should tumble and fall (Ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Or the mountain should crumble to the sea (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
I won't cry, I won't cry (Ooh)
No, I won't shed a tear (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Just as long as you stand, stand by me (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
[Chorus]
And darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Whoa, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me
[Chorus]
Darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me
[Outro]
Whenever you're in trouble, won't you stand by me?
Oh, stand by me
Whoa, just stand now
Oh, stand
