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,
oh i won\'t be afraid,
just as long as you stand, stand by me.
so darlin\' darlin\' stand by me,
oh stand by me,

if the sky that 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,
and darlin\' darlin\' stand by me,
---music---

oh darlin\' darlin\' stand by me,
stand by me, stand by me...
