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, 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 (ah-oh)

Should tumble and fall

The mountain 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.

And darlin', darlin', stand by me, oh, stand by me

Oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me.

And darlin', darlin', stand by me, stand by me

Oh, stand by me, oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me.

Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me

Oh, stand by me

Oh, stand now, stand by me, stand by me.
