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
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 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 shed a tear,
Just as long as you stand me
Darlin', darlin' stand by me
Oh won't you stand by me
Oh, stand stand by me
Stand by me
Darlin', darlin' stand by me
Stand by me stand by me
Stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble now
Stand by me stand by me
Stand by me stand by me
Stand by me
Darlin' darlin'
Oh stand by me
