Stand By Me

Ben E. King


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
 No, I won't be afraid
 Just as long as you stand
 Stand by me

 (Chorus:)
 So darling, darling,
 stand by me,
 oh, stand by me
 oh, stand,
 stand by me
 stand by me

 If the sky that we look upon
 should tumble and fall
 or the mountains should crumble in 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

 (Chorus)
