When the night has come and the land is dark
and the moon is the only light we see
no I won't be afraid, no I won't shed a tear
just as long, just as long as you stand by me
so darling, darling stand by me
oh, now stand by me
if you're in need (stand by me)
won't you stand by me (stand by me)
when the sky we look upon
oh the picture, it'd crumble and fall
and the mountains, they should tumble into the sea
oh, yeah, no I won't be afraid, no I won't shed a tear
just as long, just as long as you stand by me
so darling, darling stand by me
oh, now stand by me
if you're in need (stand by me)
won't you stand by me (stand by me)
so darling, darling stand by me
ohhh, stand by me
if you're in need (stand by me)
won't you stand by me (stand by me)
oh, won't you stand by me
so won't you stand by me
baby, won't you stand by me, yeah
if you're in need (stand by me)
won't you stand, stand by me
so won't you stand by me
oh, no, no, stand by me
if you're in need (stand by me)
won't you stand by me, stand
