When the night has come
And the land is dark
And the moon is the only light we'll see
Well, I won't be afraid
No, I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand by me
And, darling, darling
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me
If the sky that we look upon
Should tumble and fall
And the mountains
Would crumble to the sea
Well, I won't, I won't cry
No I won't shed a tear
Just as long as you stand by me
And, darling, darling
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me
