Stand By Me
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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 afraid
Oh I won't be afraid
Just as long as you stand, stand by me
So darlin' darlin' stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me
Oh darlin' stand by me, stand by me
Stand by me.
If the scene we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or 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
So darlin' darlin' stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me
Oh darlin' stand by me
Stand by me
If the scene we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or 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
So darlin' darlin' stand by me
Oh stand, stand by me
Oh darlin' stand by me
Stand by me
If the scene we look upon
Should tumble and fall
Or 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
So darlin' darlin' stand, stand by me
Oh darlin' stand, stand, stand by me
Oh stand by, stand by me
Stand by me
Oh darlin' stand by
Stand by me
