When the night has come   And the land is dark   And the moon is the only light we see   No I won't be afraid   No I won't be afraid   Just as long as you stand, stand by me       And darling, darling stand by me   Oh, now, now, stand by me   Stand by me, stand by me       Won't you please stand by me?   Oh, now, now, stand by me   Stand by me, stand by me       Oh, now, now, stand by me   Stand by me, stand by me
