Stand by Me Lyrics

When the night has come and the land is so 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
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon should tumble and fall
And 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
Say you're gonna stand by me
Oh tell me stand now
Come on and stand now
Stand by me
Stand by me

If the sky that we look upon, whoa now should tumble and fall
And 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
Say you're gonna stand by me
Oh tеll me stand now
Come on and stand now
Stand by me
Whеnever I'm in trouble won't you stand by me
Say you're gonna stand now by me
You gonna stand now
Oh darling stand now
Stand by me
Stand by me

  • 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 [?]
