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
