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 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 Or the mountains should crumble to the sea I won't cry, I won't cry, no, I won't 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 Instrumental So darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh, stand by me Oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh, stand by me Oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me Instrumental Stand by me Stand by me
