Stand By Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 be afraid
Just as long as you stand
Stand by me

[Chorus]
So darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me

[Verse 2]
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
All 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

[Chorus]
And darling, darling, stand by me
Oh, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me
[Verse 3]
Whenever you're in trouble
Won't you stand by me?
Oh, now, now, stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me

[Chorus]
Darling, darling, stand by me
Stand by me
Oh, stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
