Lyrics

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, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I won't be afraid
Not as long, not as long, as you stand by me
Sometimes I sit down and I wonder
I sit down and I wonder, baby
I wonder, if you love me
Do you love me, like you say you do?
But if you would just hold my hand
Let me know, let me know, let me know that you understand
I would understand that everything
Everything is gonna be alright
And darling, darling, darling, darling
And stand, stand by me
I need your shoulder, your shoulder to cry on
I need somebody, somebody, to stand by me
So if the sky that we look upon
Should tumble or fall
Or the mountains should tumble on the sea
I won't cry, I won't cry
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I won't shed no tears
Not as long, not as long, as you stand by me
And darling, darling, darling, darling
Stand, stand by me, baby
I need your loving shoulder to cry on
