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 I won't be afraid,
Just as long as you stand,
stand by me
Darling, darling stand by me,
Oh, now, now, stand by me
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 shed a tear
Just as long as you stand,
stand by me.
Darling, darling stand by me,
Oh, now, now, stand by me,
stand by me, stand by me.

Whenever you're in trouble
won't you stand by me
oh, now, now, stand by me
stand by me, stand by me
Darling, darling, stand by me
oh, now, now, stand by me
stand by me, stand by me

Whenever you're in trouble
won't you stand by me
oh, now, now, stand by me
stand by me, stand by me
Darling, darling, stand by me
oh, now, now, stand by me
stand by me, stand by me
