Music: Ben E. King/Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller
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
So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand
Please stand, stand by me, stand by me
If the sky, we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or 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
So darlin', darlin', stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand now
Stand by me, stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Whenever you're in trouble won't you stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Oh, stand, won't you stand by
Stand by me, stand by me
You don't have to do it alone, you don't have to stand up for your own
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Won't you stand, stand by me
