Lyrics
When the night that we look has come
and the land ble is dark
and the moon tains
is the on ble ly light to we see,
oh, I won’t
be a fraid, no I won’t won’t
be a fraid
just as long
as you stand,
stand by me.
So dar ling, dar ling, stand
by me,
stand by me,
oh, stand
stand by me.
If the sky that we look up on
and should tum ble and fall
and the moun tains
is should crum ble ly in to the sea,
I won’t cry,
I won’t cry, no I won’t won’t
shed a tear
just as long
as you stand,
stand by me.
So dar ling, dar ling, stand
by me,
stand by me,
oh, stand
stand by me.
If the me.
