STAND BY ME

BEN E. KING

 

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 darling, darling, stand by me

Oh, stand by me, oh, stand

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

 

And darling, darling, stand by me

Oh, stand by me, oh, stand now

Stand by me, stand by me

 

Darling, darling, 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...
