Intro
When the night, has come. And the land is dark.
And the moon, is the only light we'll see.
Oh I won't, be afriad, no I won't be afriad
just as long as you stand, stand by me.
So darlin' darlin' stand by me. Oh stand by me.
Oh stand, stand by, stand by me.
If the sky, that we look upon, should tumble and fall.
And 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
Repeat chorus until fade.
